I read this quote today and it made me laugh out loud:
“Don’t compare yourself to other mothers. We are all loosing our shit. Some just hide it better than others.”
How true is this? I mean really we are all just doing the best we possibly can. My lil monsters are my world. I’m anything but a perfect mama, but I will forever give them my all. I think some people take social media too serious. Try so hard to “seem perfect” at all times. I love my mama friends and family that are honest about life. Not everything in life is peachy. Some days are just tough. Some days our kiddos even have bad days. Some days we really are all loosing our shit, ha ha. Sometimes we go into something with the best of intentions and well life has other plans. Tantrums are throw, shoes go missing, sofas get drawn on with sharpies and are the furthest thing from your biggest worry. It’s okay to laugh about it. It’s okay to not be a perfect mom. It’s okay to give it your all and some days think you may totally be failing at this mom gig. It’s also okay to share it with your friends and make them feel normal too!
Incidentally, today I discovered Bitty’s sharpie art on our sofa. I’m about to go to sleep and it’s still there. I’m okay with this fact. I’ll clean it and someday I’ll miss her little art mishaps. So I choose to laugh about it, of course not in front of her:)
