"Dylan Dreyer expressed, 'I feel like I have my life that I love. I love my job. I love coming to work. I'm not thinking about my kids. And then I go home and I love being a mom. I love being with the kids, and I'm not really thinking about work. It's like I'm living two different lives, but they're all cohesive.'"
"Amanda Hirsch stated, 'In general, I've kind of matured and think about everything before I talk about it. I can still care about the dumb s---, even if my kid is sick at home and I'm dealing with that too.'"
"Hirsch remarked, 'You can come from the chicest gala ... and then it's like, 'Lenny vomited, go clean it up.' Moms just never get applause.'"
