Motherhood

THE BEAUTIFUL. THE HARD.
THE IN-BETWEEN

This is where we talk about what no one else does. The identity shift. The invisible load. The loneliness. The joy. The love that changes you forever.

Motherhood has a way of making you feel a hundred different emotions all before your coffees even ready. It can be wonderful and exhausting, hilarious and infuriating, redundant and completely life-alerting- all in the same damn day.

You don’t have to pretend here.
You are seen. You are not alone.

YOU ARE SEEN HERE

Motherhood isn’t a competition.
It’s a human experience.
Give yourself some grace.

IIIf there’s one thing I’ve learned about motherhood it’s that each season is vastly different. There will be season when you’re thriving and seasons when you can only keep up with feeding everyone.
Both count.

You don’t have to love every moment, in fact you won’t. You don’t have to find a way to be productive every minute of the day. Every single moment doesn’t have to be filled and meaningful.

Sometimes winning is cooking dinner at home, sometimes it’s ordering pizza. Sometimes it’s doing learning skills with the kids. Sometimes it’s a lazy day with a 3 movie special and doing absolutely nothing else.

There is room for all of it here.

Motherhood, in all its chaotic glory

Motherhood is not one single story.

Some days you’ll feel like you were made for this. Other days you’ll wonder who let you be responsible for another life.

You’ll lose your patiences and find it again. Some days you’ll feel you’ve got it all figured out and others like you’re losing your mind. You’ll make mistakes. You’ll apologize. You’ll laugh till you pee and you’ll sob silently in the bathroom. You’ll make memories you don’t realize are highlights of the season until they’re already behind you.
And somewhere in all of the mess, you’ll keep becoming.

And that’s what this space is here for.

Not to tell you how to be a better mom.
To simply remind you, when it’s easily forgotten, you are already a mom worth loving, being proud of and caring for, too.
