Toddler moms see their kids walk and talk for the first time while simultaneously mitigating meltdown after meltdown. Once the kids get older, where they aren't quite toddlers but not in those messy teen years yet, those moms are known as 'middle moms,' and some swear that this is the sweet spot of parenting." And honestly? I'm convinced.
