To the moms out there,
I need you to know,
You’re doing a great job.
It’s ok to lose your patience sometimes.
It’s ok to wish you could avoid dinner time altogether.
It’s ok to need a break.
It’s ok to want to have a whole weekend of not being needed by someone.
It’s ok to feel that you do a thankless job sometimes.
It’s ok to be sad one minute and full of joy that leaves you speechless.
It’s ok to be disappointed one moment and laughing hysterically the next (because kids are hilarious and sweet).
It’s ok to feel guilty sometimes when you choose yourself because society and culture tells us we have to sacrifice ourselves for our kids (it’s a lie).
It’s ok to feel overwhelmed at times and then to feel like you got it totally together.
Give yourself permission to feel it all.
Give yourself compassion and begin the interaction with your child again.
Give yourself the love you give to everyone else.
You’re doing a great job.
Even when your house isn’t cleaned spotless like a museum, you’re doing a great job.
I need the reminder too❤️
