Since finding out I was pregnant all I have ever wanted to do was be the best mother I could be. I was young when I had my first and many people told me I would be able to do it. I was told I would graduate high school and that I wouldn’t make anything of my life. So I find myself having negative thoughts even though I did in fact graduate high school, I’ve since had 3 more beautiful/handsome babies and I am married to the father of those 3 babies. I found a man who loves all 4 of my children the same. So to me I have made something of my life.
There is just something about being told by someone else that you are doing a great job as a mom because we always think of ways that we could have been a better mom through out the day. What could we have done differently? So when someone tells us how they are proud of us or how they don’t know how we do it that they couldn’t do it. That in its self is enough to make my heart happy and full of love.
By bedtime most nights I find myself asking did I yell too much? Did I spend enough time with each child? Did I show each child the attention that they needed? Did I help them with what they needed? Did I make sure that they knew they can talk to me about anything? Do they know that they are the most important things to me and that without them I’d be lost?
As mothers we try to conquer the world for our children and sometimes it feels like the world is just out to get us. Like no matter what we do or how hard we try it will have something negative to throw back our way. Us as mothers need to post each other up. We need to make sure we keep telling each other how great one another is doing. So that no of us ever forget that we are doing a perfect job!
My babies telling me they love me and good night at the end of the night is the key to my success. It’s the key to me being here. It’s the key to me not giving up when I struggle to move forward. My babies are my whole bean.
Thank yall for taking the time to read this. So it’s not as long and sorry it’s been a few days since I have posted. I’ve been dealing with a horrible migraine that is finally easing up. So hopefully this is a start to a fresh week! And back to motivation and positive mind set!! I hope everyone had a great Valentine’s Day!
