imagine how uncomfortable it must feel
to wear clothes after only knowing the safety of the womb.

imagine how frightening it is
to be hungry for the very first time
when you’ve never known hunger before.

how strange to be cut from the cord
that kept you close and connected to mama.
how lonely to suddenly not hear her heartbeat
the way you always have.

but then
your eyes open.
your tiny body trembles.
and she is right there.

her arms, her warmth, her milk.
her body teaching you:
you are safe.
you are held.
you are loved.

what a privilege it is to be
your baby’s whole world.
their comfort.
their home.
their everything.

and what a miracle that a mother’s body
still gives them all they need.
even outside the womb.

If this quote made you tear up a little…

You’re not too emotional.
You’re just a mama who remembers how much it all meant.

The baby days.
The quiet moments.
The times you asked yourself, “Am I doing this right?”
You were doing your best. And that was enough.

And if you’ve ever felt like turning these feelings into something more —
Something that can touch other moms —
You can.

There’s a version of you who doesn’t just read these words.
She shares them.
She builds a simple page that connects with thousands of moms who feel the same way.

You don’t need to show your face.
You don’t need a lot of time.
You just need to begin.

Because even if your little ones are growing up…
Your story still matters.
And other moms need to hear it.

DM me “GUIDE” and I’ll show you how to start. 💛

Oh, mama do I feel this.

We are juggling a lot. Remember, some balls are glass and some are rubber. Letting one (or a few) rubber ones drop and bounce is perfectly ok.

What can you let drop this weekend?

"Today I want to celebrate all the rainbow babies out there! 🌈❤️ For those who don't know, a rainbow baby is a child born after a miscarriage, stillbirth, or infant loss. They are a symbol of hope and a reminder that even in the midst of darkness, there can be light and beauty. If you're a parent of a rainbow baby, know that you are not alone and that your little one is a precious gift. And if you're still waiting for your rainbow baby, know that there is hope and healing ahead. Sending love and support to all the families who have been touched by loss and to all the little rainbows who bring joy and hope to our world. 🌈❤️ "

Do you know that feeling when you wake up in the middle of the night and it’s cold and your diaper feels heavy. And there are so many strange sounds all around you, and it’s dark and scary. And you get a hit in your head and it’s your hand that’s on its own adventure. And you can’t control it at all and it flings itself around and scratches your face and pulls at your hair. And your legs start kicking off the duvet, even though you’re cold as it is and you try to make it stop but they have their own will. And so you’re lying there completely helpless with flailing limbs that want to do everything, but none of the things you want.

And you can’t find mom. And you call for her and you find yourself feeling really scared. What if your beloved mom doesn’t come for you. You can’t imagine anything worse and you start to cry because you miss her so terribly. You have never felt as alone as this very moment.

And then she is suddenly there. Standing right by your bed and looking at you with worry and love. And she is the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen. And you grin up at her with happiness and relief. You don’t think you’ve ever felt as happy as this very moment.

And she picks you up and holds you close. And she smells like herself, and also a bit like you. Like milk and safety and love. And it’s the best smell in the whole entire world.

And she is warm and safe and soft and her hands caress you and she feeds you and hums your favourite tune. And you love her voice. You’ve known it far longer than you’ve really known her. It has lulled you to sleep and made you laugh and calmed you when you were distressed. It is the most beautiful voice in the whole entire world.

And you get to lie right up against her and you feel your entire body start to warm up again. And your still cold hand starts stroking her and moves up towards her neck and accidentally scratches her. Stupid uncontrollable hand. But mom doesn’t get angry. She takes your stupid hand in hers and it turns all warm again. And this is the best feeling in the world. Right here in mommy’s arms, with your hand in hers. Even the diaper doesn’t feel as horrible anymore.

And you feel your eyes getting heavy and you know that everything is okay now cause mommy is here. Your mom. Your wonderful, incredible mom who always looks after you. Night and day.

You look up at her one last time before you fall asleep. She looks tired and her eyes are closed, and yet she is still the most magnificent thing you know. How amazing that she wants to sit here with you in this moment. How amazing that she will always sit with you for a bit when you need her to.

You smile to yourself. How lucky you were that she became your mom. The most perfect mom anyone could have asked for.
You knew, even before you saw her, that she would be the best thing in the world.

Oh how you love her. Your mom.❤️

❤️❤️❤️
This is your reminder to record your Momma. Record her around the kitchen, ask her why she used chicken broth instead of water, or why she does or doesn’t use velveeta and record that, record her fussing about the same old stuff like she always does, prank her and record that. Record her funny sayings and her bits of advice. Ask her to tell you about the day you were born and record her face as she lights up remembering. Record her telling you to put some socks on that baby and when she tells you don’t go in her pots without washing your hands. Ask her questions, both serious and silly ones, and record her answers. Play her favorite song and when she starts dancing/singing, yep, you guessed it… record it. Make her laugh… I mean REALLY laugh and for the love of God, record that too. And take lots of pictures of and WITH her, even when she tells you she’s not dressed for pictures. Take them anyway. Record it anyway. And when you get the chance, tell her you know she did her best with what she had and her best was always enough. And if you want, record that too.
I hope this hits you in just the right spot and you take heed because the day will come when there is a longing so deep to just hear her voice, her laugh, see her as she was… and when that day comes, you’ll pull out your recordings & feel just a little bit of her again ❤️

This made me cry 😢

When you first have children they talk about the challenges of parenting....the struggles of a baby waking in the night,
the toddler who won’t stay in their bed, the cost of childcare, injuries from sports...

Having to take off work to pick them up from school when they don’t feel well, helping them with homework, a messy house, the never ending laundry, the cost to buy school clothes, packing their lunches....

You watch their eyes light up on Christmas morning....and try to soak in the magic of those moments.

You coach them in sports, rushing to practices and ballgames...and tote them all over the country to let them play the game they love...no matter how exhausting or expensive it becomes.

Life is just so busy that you rarely even stop to think what the end of those days look like.

In fact, it’s not really even something you can wrap your mind around.

You go into it thinking that 18-20 years sounds like a long time....

Then suddenly hours turn into days...days into months...and months into years.

That little person that used to crawl up next to you in bed and cuddle up to watch cartoons...suddenly becomes this young adult who hugs you in the hallway as they come and go.

And the chaos and laughter that used to echo throughout your home....gets filled with silence and solitude.

You’ve learned how to parent a child who needs you to care for and protect them....but have no clue how the whole “letting go” thing is supposed to work.

So you hold on as tight as you can...wondering how time passed so quickly...feeling guilty that you missed something....

Because even though you had 20 years.....it just somehow doesn’t seem like it was enough.

You ask yourself so many questions...

Did you teach them the right lessons?
Did you read them enough books as a child?
Spend enough time playing with them?
How many school parties did you have to miss?
Do they really know how much you love them?
What could I have done better as a parent?
....When it’s time for them to go, it all hits you like a ton of bricks.

And all you can do is pray....hope....and trust that God will protect them as they start to make their way into the world alone.

Parenting is by far the most amazing experience of your life....that at times leaves you exhilarated....while others leave you heartbroken.

But one thing is certain.....it’s never enough time...💕

So for all the parents with young children...whose days are spent trying to figure out how to make it through the madness...
Exhausted day in and day out...

Soak. It. All. In.

Because one day....all those crazy days full of cartoons, snuggles, sleep overs, Christmas morning magic, ballgames, practices and late night dinners...

All come to an end.

And you’re left hoping that you did enough right, so that when they spread their wings....

They’ll fly...💕🦋
