Historians as Parents

Historians As Parents: Podcasting Through It

The thing that I thought would be easiest to drop became something of a lifeline for me.

Whatever I write and record could be important for my children and future generations.

Parenting is a humbling reminder that knowledge does not just magically appear.

In a cruel twist of fate, my children suffer from having a historian for a mother.

I first learned I was pregnant immediately after passing my Ph.D. qualifying exams. A few weeks later I discovered I was carrying twins.

I can tell that they find it both fascinating and frustrating to have a historian as a parent.
