#3 Diarrhea and Vomiting: Teaching and Parenting Stories of Unplanned Messes

Ever had one of those days when you're not only a mom but the nurse, janitor, and hygiene specialist—all at once? Yeah, I’ve been there too! On this episode of Teacher Mom Talks, we dive deep (maybe too deep) into the messy world of throwing up and diarrhea. From classroom cleanup disasters to those unforgettable (and cringeworthy) moments when we’re parenting through our own sickness, today's conversation is all about the less glamorous side of being a mom and a teacher.

I share some personal tales—like that mortifying high school moment when I didn't quite make it to the trash can, and the chaos of having sick kids while I was down with the dreaded Norwalk virus. We also explore how humor, understanding, and a lot of patience help navigate these tough times. Plus, I end the episode with a quote that's bound to make you chuckle and remind you we're all just doing our best in this wild ride called life.
