I have a deep appreciation for Google. The ability to search for anything at any time has been a game-changer for me as a parent. It’s provided support in numerous situations, while also leaving me in sheer panic on occasion.
One of the best aspects of Google is its non-judgmental nature. You can type in any question without fear of being identified—assuming your settings are configured properly. This incredible tool has led me to explore a wide range of topics over the last four years and eight months, some of which are quite personal, others downright amusing, and some fall into both categories. I doubt I’m alone in having an entertaining search history, and I thought it would be fun to share a glimpse of mine.
