Mother’s Day – Being a Mom…

I think that it is one of the hardest things because: 1) I love my kids so much 2) I want the best for their lives 3) I don’t always know the best way to help them get there which can feel overwhelming at times.

I really enjoy listening to Sally Clarkson’s podcasts. I feel like she really helps me think through my goals, encourages me that it is worth it, and reminds me that teaching a child doesn’t mean tell them once and they get it, but it means saying the same thing over and over again, and hoping that by 18 they get it :) That has been a really valuable addition to my life over this past year. I like to listen to her while I do my dishes in the morning.

I made this little poster to put on my door so that I see it every day- it helps me to be a better mom. Happy Mom’s Day to any of my friends reading this. Mom, if you are reading this, I’ll talk to you tomorrow! Love you more than you know and am so thankful for the love and care you put into raising me!!!!
