The interesting thing about being a mother is that everyone

Summary

This quote humorously highlights the often unappreciated and overlooked aspects of motherhood. While many people desire the joyful and rewarding experience of having children, they often fail to realize the less glamorous tasks that come with it. The author, possibly a mother, points out that everyone enjoys the benefits of having children, yet only she is left to deal with the less pleasant responsibilities, akin to being the sole person responsible for cleaning the kitty litter in a household.

Feelings that simultaneously exalt and suffocate.
