0:00.0	Hey, everyone. Welcome to Why Mommy Drinks. I just remembered I used to when we started
0:21.0	the show. I used to pretend to put on a fake wig and then I would start and it always
0:26.9	made guests very confused, which is fair. Why would you ever think someone would put on a weird fake
0:33.5	wig? Anyway, hi. Welcome to Why Mommy Drinks. This is Betsy Stover. Today I am joined by my guest,
0:41.8	co-host Amy Albert. Hi, hello. And I am so excited to talk to this person and I'm so excited for
0:50.9	you to meet them. She's a content creator. She's an actor. She's an author. She does many things.
0:56.8	Laura, Clarey. Hi, everyone. Hello. Thank you for having me. Thank you so much for coming on
1:05.8	the show. Thank you for blessing us with your presence today. I appreciate you. Oh, yeah, yeah.
1:13.0	So, I have three kids. They are old boys. I have a six-year-old, a nine-year-old, and an 11-year-old.

2:03.7	fun? I don't know. It depends what part of the country you live in. I mean, everyone's by their
2:10.9	sign. So, I don't know. Yeah. I never got into it. It's important, I think. And then I have a two-year-old.
2:17.8	So, I have a one-year-old in the two-year-old, but the two-year-old is almost three. He'll be three
2:22.0	on the 20th. So, I want to say one in three, but technically, it's one in two, but one in
2:29.1	almost three. Wow. And you said two boys? Well, Poppy, my youngest, is a girl.
2:37.7	Oh, a girl. That's right. Right now. We don't know how she's going to identify later.
2:43.6	She's from Los Angeles. She doesn't believe in signs, but she does believe that gender is a
