Lately, with everything life has been throwing at me, I’ve been reflecting a lot.
Sometimes I ask myself, Who would I be if I never had my babies?
And honestly… I think I would’ve been lost.
My kids came into my life with challenges I never could’ve prepared for, but through those challenges, they showed me strengths I didn’t know I had. They taught me about my heart, my purpose, my relationships, my boundaries, and the woman I want to become.
I’ve made mistakes. I’m still figuring life out. But now I get to take those lessons and teach my children better.
Being a full-time mom while trying to build something for myself, chase my dreams, find my independence, and figure out who I am as a woman outside of motherhood is HARD.
But my babies get to watch all of it.
They see Mommy struggle.
They see Mommy cry.
They see Mommy dream.
They see Mommy get knocked down.
And most importantly, they see Mommy get back up.
I used to think I had to have everything figured out for them.
Now I realize maybe one of the greatest things I can show them is that you can go through hard things, learn from them, rebuild, and still keep becoming the person you were meant to be.
Motherhood didn’t erase who I am.
In so many ways, it helped me discover her. ❤️
