The Summer Sweats

We're back and much to Amanda's dismay, Megan is giving summer the ultimate farewell party but talking about all the things that give people the "summer sweats." You know what we're talking about. When it's so small, but makes you so sweaty. The constant mess. All the snacks. The constant supply of wet towels. JUST SIMPLY THE HEAT. All of it. We heard your submissions and we responded. Au revoir, summer. See you soon, I'll miss you. xoxo, Amanda (not Megan)

What is A For Effort?

Hey, it’s us: Amanda and Megan. We’re just two average moms who love their kids so dang much we decided to start a podcast! This is not another mommy podcast, with experts informing you how you can be a better mom/wife/daughter/coworker/best friend in twenty-six sugar-coated steps. What WILL you find in this podcast? Validation? Yes. Laughter? Hopefully. Inspiring advice? Probably not.

Truthfully, no matter how many parenting books we read or conferences we attend, we still find ourselves raising our eyebrows and stifling laughs at our offspring. So, at the end of the day, we just slap each other on the butts (like you did in high school volleyball) and say: “you really tried, and that’s all that matters…”
