Ok....here we go! This is my side of the story. I will post consecutive parts from this video. Hoping to make it easier to watch in pieces. Trying to figure out how to balance being a mother of a child with an eating disorder while also just being a parent who has to still give tough love to that same child. I'm a mother of 4, struggling every day to be the best mom I can be. One day at a time. We are doing the best we can.

Y'ALL!!!! This humidity is AWFUL! But I finished my run, lungs tight and all. I'm ready for legit fall/winter weather....which will never happen here in Georgia 😭 To my parents out there who have had to drop there kids off at school for the first time! Don't be sad! Be proud that they made it....we made it as parents!

Long post alert. I got on a little bit of a soapbox on how body image is being advertised on social media. I am now seeing posts supposedly from moms about how they helped their kid get "skinny" or "healthy" in a year, when the kid was probably never unhealthy to begin with. We have to be smart with what we say, but also be kind to ourselves and those we love. Being skinny does not equal being healthy.

This is something we are currently living and something Nora is challenged by every day. She has followed Allie Ostrande...

This is something we are currently living and something Nora is challenged by every day. She has followed Allie Ostrander and gets inspiration from her not just because of running but because of her will power and honesty. She share a story on her Instagram as to what started her thoughts and it was adults saying their 12 yo daughters would be faster if they were smaller/skinnier. And many years later she can now advocate but is still struggling. This is the same thing that Nora has mentioned. We have normalized being skinny as being the only way to be strong and healthy. Let's be aware of what we say and who may be listening. We just have to be smart about our health without it being detrimental.

Is vacation really vacation when you are a parent? Me and the beach do not mix, and throw in not having enough of my ADHD medicine, things have been rough. Nora is making the most of programming and trying to get as much beach time as possible. Being a mom of 4 different personalities is a lot tougher than I thought especially when teenage girls are in the mix. But one step at a time, right?!
