You know what is hard? Motherhood. You know what is amazing? Motherhood. You know what is lonely? Motherhood (even though you are never alone, like ever). You know what makes you feel like the biggest failure? Motherhood. You know what makes you feel like you are superhuman? Motherhood. You know what makes you feel like you are crazy? Motherhood. You know what makes you feel like the most patient person in the world? Motherhood. And guess what makes you feel like the most impatient person in the world, yup, Motherhood. You know what brings out your worst side? Motherhood. You know what brings out your best side? Motherhood.
Motherhood, it is full of oxymorons, polar opposites, fear, doubt, joy, love, and literally every single emotion in between and some you didn’t even know existed.
Wherever you are on this motherhood spectrum, from brand new to having grandchildren, all of us feel these emotions, you really aren’t alone. So to every person who feels a little alone today, please take this post and pocket it. The beautiful thing about motherhood is, we should all get it.
We are all doing the best we can, with never ever knowing how to actually do it. So smile at the new mom, the mom with a whole bunch of kids in tow, and to the grandmother who has seen it all. Because there's no reason for any of us to be alone in this thing because we really should be able to all relate on one thing, and that is MOTHERHOOD. 💜💜💜
