2nd mama of the day is and here’s motherhood for her-
Whats one thing about being a mom brings you joy?
Raising a girl is such an incredible thing. I love seeing her play, pretend, be fearless, and just her all around silly personality just makes me so proud to be her mom.
What is the hardest thing about being a mom?
There are definitely challenges to almost all aspects of being a mom, but the hardest for me personally, is to let go of guilt or worry that you aren’t doing “enough”, or if you aren’t doing something “right”.
What has been the biggest challenge you have faced in motherhood?
Her birth was pretty wild. Our shared experience of long hospital stays, and some scary moments, have so far been the toughest part. Working through birth trauma is a battle, but since then everything has exceeded my expectations.
What has been your biggest accomplishment as a mom?
I never actually thought I would have kids, so just being someone’s parent is huge to me. It gives me so much purpose, and perspective on life and what is important. I am proud of how well I am doing it all, and I am so blessed to be on this journey.
