Executing plans feels like a miracle.
Behind every meetup of parents with small children, there is an orchestration of logistics happening in the background.
If any piece of this intricately planned puzzle falls out of alignment, the plans are off. Two parents meeting is actually ten people meeting.

Huxley riding in the car is a miracle. She would rather not make plans that require travel.
"Two parents meeting is actually ten people meeting" is so spot on.
Question: Is there Uber for babysitters? Like, a nanny on-demand? I know there’s sites for nannies, but does an app like that exist? (If it’s not a thing yet, I’m surprised). Seems useful/needed to avoid the intricate planning? Or is that worse because on-demand would be hella expensive?
Another thought; For less future chaos, I’m thinking making more friends with childless people is helpful for mom’s/parents? Some of our many pros are that we generally have more energy, time, and flexibility to accommodate you busy parents than other busy parents do? (I feel like this goes for married people/single people, too.) ((I’m thinking single childless people are an untapped overlooked category of friend for married parentals -- I'm gonna keep developing my thoughts on this, but how does this land for you?)).
