If you know me: I don’t live a scripted and perfect life so enjoy my favorite picture of my motherhood.
To all my girls out there that have sat in my chair, thank you for playing a role in the path I’ve set for the future. I’ve heard stories of grieving, love, grace, compassion, infertility, trauma, love, birth and overall stories of strength. I always take a little piece of everyone home with me and wonder, “how can I do better tomorrow?”
I’m so honored to have the opportunity to take care of each and everyone of you & that I get to even meet your babies and love on them.
Motherhood is not always going to be frolicking through a field of flowers and a huge smile on your face in a pretty dress. It’s a big t shirt from high school and your partners sweatpants with god knows what stain is on the edges, a cold coffee on the counter that you can’t finish drinking, at least one kid or both is crying. It’s anxiety. It’s zooming in on the monitor looking for a chest to rise or nostrils to flare. The crying on the way to work or school, when you just wanna stay home and snuggle. It’s working so hard for that first laugh and clapping your hands the hardest in the room when a piece of your heart walking on the earth accomplishes something. Mothering is kissing booboos, “what is in your mouth?”, the scary silence after a half of second of peeing, it’s the early mornings with a tiny hand in your mouth, the moment in the hospital where the world stops and it’s just you and your baby looking at each other. Practicing humility and letting go of ego. Motherhood sets you up to struggle, so you can come back stronger.
To all the mom’s who are struggling, overstimulated, grieving, in pain: it’s normal ❤️
It won’t be like this forever, but it will be worth it. The sun always rises and the flower will continue to bloom.
Happy Mother’s Day.
