The 'Bluey' Episode That Helped Me See Myself As A Good Mom

"My daughters are on the couch watching Bluey and eating their fifth snack of the hour. In the pause between hunting and gathering new snacks, I'm unloading the dishwasher. Or I was – until finding myself glued to the TV with a plate in my hand," writes Laura Onstot. As it turns out, the episode ("Stories," from season 3) hit surprisingly close to home for a grown adult and mom. And today, she's talking about why, and what Bluey helped her realize. It's a lovely piece.
