As far as mothers go, I got lucky. “Is that really your mom?”--said in the most incredulous of tone--was a constant refrain when I was growing up. Now that I’m an adult, I see what the fuss was about. My mother is cool--way cooler than average. Not only that, she is so gorgeous and youthful that she could pass for my very hip older sister.

I'd like to know if “couldn’t have been easy” should be “wasn’t easy” because the fact is that being a single mother of two was not easy.
