My kids love bath bombs and I usually get a few as stocking stuffers. Some of our favorites are from Lush.
This cute little snowman finger puppet bath bomb is delightful! It fizzes away in your bath leaving a refreshing soak of peppermint and almond oils. Oat flour and tapioca starch are calming and kind to even sensitive skin. Just make sure to get an extra one for yourself!
This Snowman Finger Puppet Bath Bomb is $4.50 at Lush.

My friend sent me a common meme the other day that said “How adulthood feels, pick 3: work, hobbies, exercise, eating healthy, family, romance, sleep, seeing friends”. Mine is easily work, family, sleep.
It made me realize that really my only source of joy these days is my young daughter. I love my husband and am so appreciative of him. Work is stressful but fulfilling. I’m very happy with my life. But the only times lately I’ve had that light, smiley, joyful feeling is with my daughter.
I don’t really know what my question is. Does anyone else feel like this? Do I try to find joy in other areas of my life (and how)? Or is this just a phase of having young kids and I just embrace it for now?

I think it’s pretty normal when you have young kids. Mine are hobbies, family and sleep and my “hobbies” are pretty low key.

Mine are work, family and eating healthy. I was prediabetic and had to lose weight and change my diet drastically upon medical advice so it wasn’t a choice honestly but takes a lot of work. I have one kid and it feels like no time between work and household stuff for much else. My kid is 5 and mostly outgrown things like tantrums, she is definitely my source of joy these days. And work is work, 9-5 but an emotionally and mentally demanding and draining job sometimes.
I attended a funeral of someone who died when their kids were in high school and the wife said she and her husband were just finding their way back to each other after the busyness of children and then he died (suddenly). . It resonated big time to me. My husband and I really need to make time for each other but it is hard when we are so tired and busy and are both people who need solo time too.

I went to the funeral of someone who died when their children were in high school, and the wife stated she and her husband were just getting back to each other after the busyness of children, and then he died (suddenly). It struck a deep chord with me. My spouse and I really need to make time for each other, but it’s difficult when we’re both weary and busy and need time alone. When you have young children, I believe that is quite typical. My priorities are hobbies, family, and sleep, and my “hobbies” are rather low-key.

Exciting Open Thread! It reminds me of the joy when infants discover teething tubes. Just like this thread opens conversations, baby teething toys open a world of comfort for babies, fostering smiles and peaceful moments. Happy weekend to all parents and little ones exploring new horizons together!
