Mom Knows Best: A Mother’s Day Chat with My Kindergarten Teacher Mom

This week on the Mothers of Boys Survival Guide podcast, we’re celebrating ALL the amazing moms out there with a heartfelt, hilarious, and wisdom-filled Mother’s Day episode. 💕

Host Cheryl Bohn is joined by author Suzy Shaw and Suzy’s mom, Barby Shaw—aka Nanna Dana — for stories that span generations of motherhood, from chaotic “Mudder’s Days” to finger rhymes, Foxy Loxy hikes, and the magic of Winnie the Pooh. 🧸

✨ You’ll laugh (cat food pancakes?!), maybe tear up a bit (birth stories and bedtime songs), and definitely feel seen as a mom. Barby brings timeless advice—from kindergarten classroom hacks to the power of keeping kids busy, fed, and loved. And don’t miss her classic motto for moms: “Patience, patience, little jackass.” 😂

Whether you're deep in the man-cub years or just starting your journey, this episode is packed with love, wisdom, and the gentle reminder that we’re all doing our best.
