How Star Trek Moms Give Their Kids The Look

Klingon Moms' Day Out

Last night, nearly six years after giving birth to my first child, I finally became a Real Mom.

I declare this the moment because I have finally mastered the Mom Look. The one where you just look at your kid, and she drops what she’s doing, her eyes get big, and now she’s listening. I wasn’t sure I’d ever get Mom Look. I had a feeling it might be tied to the threat of spankings, and since I’m not even sure my kids know what the word “spanking” means, I don’t know what fear my Mom Look carries. But it works. I will use my new power responsibly.
