  Speaker 1: amount of stores that are saying we need extras for
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: our shelves, the amount of pre orders that are coming

  Speaker 1: raising tween or teen boys. One of the housekeeping things,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Kylie got an email from LeAnn O'Brien who said, Hi,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Justin and Kylie just wanted to share the Mother's Day
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: card my ten year old son Oliver made for me
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: for Mother's Day. Of my favorite things. He included my
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: phone with the Happy Families podcast as we often have
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: it playing in the car. Thanks to the show. Good
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: information and relatable. Looking forward to reading your book on boys,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: so Leanne, Happy Mother's Day, and so good that your
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: son has.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: He's drawn you with a picture of phone. Not sure
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: if that's gay.
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: I was about to say, I was wondering where that
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: was going.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: But Happy Family's podcast is on the phone, so I
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: think it's excusable.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Will allow it.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: Very very nice. I think that's everything housekeeping wise. Honey,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: you wanted to talk about some stuff you wanted the top
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: of the pod.
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: So the other day, our eldest daughter called me and
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: she's I apologize I'd missed her call earlier in the day.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: Usually when she is driving our grand baby to Kindy,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: they'll give me a quick call to let me know
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: that they're on their way and I'd missed the call
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: for the morning, so I rang her a bit later
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: in the day and she said, I just have to
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: tell you the funniest story. Mum. She said, I tried
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: to call you and you didn't pick up, and so
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: I let it go to voicemail and your voicemail says,
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: this is the voicemail of Kylie Coulson. And Indy looks
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: at her and she says, Mommy, did you just try
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: to call Kylie Coulson? And Chanelle said yeah. She said huh,
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: and she said, but she's not there and we can't
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: talk to her, and she said, can we sing the
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: Kylie Coulson song? So they drove into KINDI with Kylie
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: Coulson squeaking from the car stereo.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: And if you knew to the pod and you missed it.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: A couple months ago, Kylie was joking around and told Jr.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Our brilliant producer, that she needed a theme song, and
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: this is what we ended up with.
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: She's leg busy place and my number one fan is
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: my two year old grand baby, Indy, who loves singing
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: at the top of her voice.
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: So I just need to throw this in she's out
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: to your old granddaughter, not just yours.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: Loves me more than did.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: You see her the other day when I walked into
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the house after being away for four or five days.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: I've been traveling, and I called out her name when
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: I walked into the house, and she just her whole
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: face lit up and she sprinted down the corridor into
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: my arms, gave me like a ten minute hug.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: Didn't want to let go. Man, it was amazing.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: Well I can top that. I can top that because
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: I'm wearing the purple nail polish on my fingernails that
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: she painted when I went to see her at Kindy
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: for Mother's Day.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not looking at paint my females.
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: She was not. She had no idea I was coming.
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: She heard Chanel's voice. But when she looked up, she
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: saw me, and she literally kind of slowly walked to
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: her mum, she was in a bit of a daze.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: Grabbed it by the legs, go for a hug. Wall
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: She just did not take her eyes off bit at all.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: And then she climbed up into my arms and I
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: swear she was going to choke me. She didn't want
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: to let go, and She kind of pulled away to
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: look at me and make sure I was real and
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: then go back into a big hug.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: I know that for most people listening to the pod,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: you're raising your kids right now. We are still right
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: our youngest is twelve. But grandparenting, oh my goodness, there
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: is just no joy on earth like grandparenting. Kylie, We've
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: got a We're five and a half minutes into the pod.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: We still haven't started a lot of better tomorrow. You're
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: going first, let's recap Mother's Day. I know that's where
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: you wanted to go.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: Mother's Day in our house has been an absolute non
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: event for twenty plus years.
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: Oh that's a bit harsh.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: There hasn't been huge amounts of effort consistently. Every now
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: and again, there's been, there's been some real ethic from
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: time to time. You're not plussed. You're non plussed, aren't you?
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Okay? Okay?
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: And I don't think I have very high expectations.
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: So I have zero expectations around Father's Day.
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: Not even going there or we took pas. But this
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: year was different, and it was different for all the
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: right reasons, and I was just so grateful. My mom
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: lives a good hour and a half down the road,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: and sometimes it's kind of tricky to spend time together
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: and catch up because of the distance and because we're
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: still right in the middle of raising her own fam,
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: our own family.
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: We're running around like crazy.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: You've been gone all week and you got home the
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: night before, and I kind of looked at it and
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: I said, honey, I'm gonna.
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: Head down to my mum for the night nights, but
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: I'm going away.
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And so at the last minute I asked if
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: any of the girls wanted to come with me, and
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: we ended up going down with our twenty three year old,
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: twenty two year old, and eighteen year old, so there
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: was three of them with me, and I didn't really
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: think too much of it. We were just we were
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: going down to spend time with my mom. We were
• 6:55
  Speaker 3: going to cook her dinner because she goes to church
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: very early on a Sunday morning. We did Saturday Night
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: Dennis celebration with her, and we just played a game,
• 7:04
  Speaker 3: we watched a movie. Like again, there wasn't anything, I guess,
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: particularly special about the event. It was just time together.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: But it was actually the next day, as we were
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: driving home that the girls started talking to me about
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: the things that they really appreciated about me as a mum,
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: or even just their view on motherhood in general. One
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: of the girls just acknowledged that from her point of view,
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: on her perspective as she kind of looks at people
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: around her, and I guess what the world kind of
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: tells us about mothers. It doesn't paint a particularly glorious
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: picture of motherhood in general, and it definitely feels like
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: it's at the bottom of the list of aspiring things
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: to do with your life as a woman. And we
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: sat in our church meeting and there was maybe six
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: or seven young boys who were from the age of
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: twelve to seventeen who shared their feelings about their mums.
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: And it was really heart rendering to hear boys specifically
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: talk so openly about their admiration and love that they
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: had for their mums. And as we came away from that,
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: she continued and she just said, it's hard to sit
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: in a room like that and hear the stories that
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: these boys shared and the feelings that they had towards
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: their mums and not recognize the immense impact that women
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: and mums have on their children's lives. And as I
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: reflected on what motherhood means to me as an individual.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: I can't think of any higher cause that I could
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: put my energy and time into than that of being
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: a mum to my children. And it was just it
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: was just beautiful. It was beautiful to sit in the
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: car and to be able to have those conversations, and
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: they wanted to ask lots of different things about my
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: mothering experience, of them personally and of their siblings, and
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: we were just able to share little doats and things
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: that they remembered from their childhood and things that I
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: remembered they might have wanted to know how they were.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: Can see all of those kinds of when where you
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: know there was a few questions around that you can
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: pick the child who might have asked that question.
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: We wouldn't be able to answer those questions and I
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: wouldn't have a globe.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: I'm not going to go and do any more detail.
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: But it was just delightful and so it had nothing
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: to do with what was wrapped up in a bow
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: and everything to do with just time and space to
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: reflect and just relish time together and I loved every
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: minute of it.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: The take home message motherhood is impactful. It has tremendous value.
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Anything else. Time with the kids, spending time in the
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: car side by side, having conversations matters.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah. And if Mother's Day doesn't look great to you yet,
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: just wait a few years. It will get better.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and take the kids for a sleepover at your
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: mum's house for Mother's Day next year. Like that actually
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: was a real treat for you and the girls, but
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: also for your mum. That was a really cool thing.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah. When we were sitting down at the dinner table
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: just talking about the things we were grateful for that night,
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: my mom acknowledged that since I had wrung her on
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: the Tuesday, so Tuesday night, Wednesday night, Thursday night, Friday night,
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: and we came on Saturday.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so five nights.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: She'd hardly slept. She was so excited to have us there.
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: That is so sweet. I mean, that is I'm sorry
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: for my dad. So gorgeous.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: All right, after the break, a brand new compulsion, a
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: brand new addiction, a brand new family activity that is
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: joining parents and children in our home in ways that
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: we never could have possibly imagined.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: I'm calling it a win for us and.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Also a win for Manly.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: That's next. We're back. This is the Happy Family Podcast.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: You took me by surprise when you shouted out for Manly,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: and you've kind of given it to the game away
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: a little for my older better tomorrow. It's this simple.
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: You went away on Saturday night to your mum's for
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Mother's Day. I was left at home with our two
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: youngest kids, our sixteen year old and our twelve year old.
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to name drop.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Its necessary part of the story, so please forgive the
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: I don't know the vanity associated with this. My sister's husband,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: our brother in law, has recently been appointed as the
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: brand new coach of a very very famous NRL rugby
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: League team in Sydney, the Manly Seagles.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: Our brother in law is Kieren Foran.
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: Kieran is well known to mainly faithful. He played almost
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: two hundred games for the club was recently appointed a
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: life member, so clearly one of the most respected players
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: in the game.
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: For those of you who don't follow rugby league, that
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: will mean nothing to you, but he just retired from
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: rugby league last year.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: He's mean anything to us here. I haven't I haven't
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: watched rug soo about twenty years ago.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: When I started cycling, I realized that I couldn't stay
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: up and watch Friday night football and then still get
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: up on a Saturday morning and have a good bike ride.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: I gave up football. I stopped watching it. So maybe
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: some more background here. My family is a rugby league family.
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: From the time I was born, we would spend every
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: when there was a game on the TV. Dad and
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: I would sit and watch it. We'd analyze the tackles
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: and the scrums and the forward passes and.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: You name it.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: We lived and breathed rugby league. Dad loved the Western
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Subbos Magpies. I still remember the times when he took
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: me to the football and we got to watch the
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: games live. But basically we watched every game possible.
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: And your nan and your arch and everybody like everybody's
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: bill league fanatics.
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: And so when I stopped watching rugby league in the
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: early two thousands because I'd started cycling, my family essentially
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: they all but disowned me.
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: He was like, well, what are we going to talk about?
• 12:55
  Speaker 3: I was going to say, there wasn't much to talk
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: about after that was.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: You watch the footing.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: I've started cycling and they don't want to talk about cycling.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: And I didn't know anything about footy anymore. So, long
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: story short, A few years ago, a dozen years ago, whatever,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: it was, my sister meets and Mary's Kieran. He's playing football.
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: I'm still not that interested in it. I didn't even
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: know that he was a football player and I met him.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: It was quite embarrassing, quite honestly. Fast forward, so last
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: year he retires. This year he comes in as the
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: interim coach for the Sea Eagles and within three weeks,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: sadly for the actual coach, they had three losses in
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: a row and he got given the boot. And completely unexpectedly,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: like completely shocked, Kieran gets the call, will you step
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: up as the interim coach?
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: And he says yes.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: So all of a sudden, for whatever reason, we've started
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: watching Manly play every week when the foot is on,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: and I'm on tenderhooks, like my heart is in my mouth.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: I'm so nervous. The anxiety is through the roof every
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: time Manly takes the field, because it was just exhausting.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: It's terrifying because Kieran's coaching and it feels like everything's
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: riding on Kieran the coach. And as a result of
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: me watching the footy. Now, Lily, our sixteen year old,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: has started watching the footy with me. She's always kind
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: of liked the footy anyway. She's always felt like a
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: bit of a misfit because no one else wanted to
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: watch the football. So while you were away at your mum's,
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: I signed into whatever the app is so that I
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: could watch the football and Lily came in side on
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: the couch next to me, and as a manly player
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know any of their names, but as a
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: manly player was sprinting down the field being chased by
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: another one so that he could score a try.
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: I jumped out of the couch and off the couch
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: and I'm saying, go go go. So I'm telling, like
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: my dad, go son, go go go. You good thing.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: And of course he scores the try and I'm going yes,
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: And then I'm just thinking how they going to win
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: and what's going to happen, and I'm yelling at the
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: ref for getting things wrong. And I've become completely addicted
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: to it, and so has Lily. And it's become this
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: thing where we just we're bonding over the footy again,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: and it's taken me back to those memories that I
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: have when I was a kid, and I spent that
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: time with my dad playing those games. And so my
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: older Better Tomorrow is sport and watching the TV. I
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: know that I'm kind of big on not watching screens
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: and things, but sometimes it can just be a great
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: way to bond and I'm loving it.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: I'm just well, I'm also loving the free burgers that
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: I get every time Manny wins because I picked the team.
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: So for my Grilled membership, we've gone into Grilled and
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: they've got this promotion and you're like, oh, yeah, what
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: do I need to pick a team for? And they
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: explained you can you win a free burger if your
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: team wins, and you're like, what team should I pick?
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: I'm like, what team does Karen play for?
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: Again?
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: And I said pick Manly And because I wasn't watching it,
• 15:40
