All your kids want is you. Not the fit mom, not the Pinterest mom, not the PTA mom, not every other mom you think you should be. All they want is you, so be the happiest you there ever was.
A newborn has only three demands. They are warmth in the arms of its mother, food from her breasts, and security in the knowledge of her presence. Breastfeeding satisfies all three.
Some days I messed up as your mom. Some days I didn't have the energy. Some days I didn't show you grace. Some days I simply let you down. But, every day, sweet child, every day I loved you. ♥️
Being a mama is worth all the exhaustion. It’s worth every early wake up, every sleepless night, every pile of washing, every mess. Nothing beats hearing your child say, ‘I love you’. No matter how hard it gets, it is all worth it just to be their mama.
It’s ok to have strengths and weaknesses as a mama. Some mamas play games, others listen well, some cook with love, and others are great encouragers. We don���t have to be everything, every day to our kids. We just need to show up and love them hard.
