10am I did it again. I blew it. I ate crap. Now I feel like crap. I might as well eat the rest of this box of cookies. The day is already ruined.
All these other moms seem to have it all together. How do they do it? I’m one toddler tantrum away from a breakdown. I feel disgusting. The house is a disaster. And I yelled at the kids today. I can’t believe
I yelled at them. I’m the worst mom ever. I can’t do this.
Ugh, I can’t handle another day at school. The teachers never let up. The other girls are so mean. I don’t fit in anywhere. I feel so alone. What a loser.
Know that You Are ENOUGH
Never enough. Right?
We are bombarded with messages every day that we need to be more. Meet impossible standards and expectations.
Do better.
Look better.
Parent better.
Be better.
The pressures we face – to be everything to everyone – are overwhelming AND exhausting.
