Recently I have had a few
friends and family members comment to me, 'you seem to always have it all
together.' I want people, especially other moms out there to know that, I try,
but the truth is, I don't 'have it all together.' In today's world, so many
parents think they need to live up to a stereotype that in my personal opinion,
completely hinders our abilities to enjoy the true meaning of life.
So in honor
of these two photos of my beautiful daughter. It's ok to have dishes backed up
in your sink, it's ok for your house to not look like a show home on a daily
basis. We all do it. Whether we admit it or not, just know when you feel overwhelmed,
you are not alone. You are doing your best, so keep doing it. The happiness you
bring to your children is not measured by what you own, what you buy, or what
your house looks like on a daily basis. Happiness is measured by the time spent
and memories made with your children and your family. Don't ever forget that,
don't ever forget to actually love what matters.
