This may not apply to all mothers across the board but I believe at least one of these scenarios will resonate with you—if you are a mother of a preschooler.
As one such mum, there are three instances on a weekday in which I call ‘hurricane hour’:
Early in the morning before they are shipped off to school
Later in the day during their afternoon activities
Just before bedtime
Weekday: 7AM
After the alarm clocks are silenced and the “It’s time to brush your teeth” and “Let’s comb your hair” instructions are done, with the occasional “Your pants are inside out, dear“, the hurry to ensure they ..read more
