Love
I had to stop for a second after editing this. I love this picture. So many of my clients ask me to tweak their imperfections in photoshop…. but this was real love. No tweaking.
There is nothing better than being a Mommy and sometimes I think we forget how blessed we are. There have been some sad stories on the news lately, and some sad things I’ve seen on social media. Being a Mommy is so so hard… infertility, pregnancy, c-sections, natural deliveries, your changing body, your lack of time, lack of sleep, and day to day chores. It’s hard being a good wife and trying to take care of yourself too. Working out, making dinner, doing laundry, doing more laundry, making more food…. we work hard. I’ve worked in the corporate world, I’ve stayed at home, and I’ve run my own business. Every position that I’ve had as Mommy was hard. But guess what? It’s so worth it.
I was trying on clothes the other day at a store and my oldest daughter said, “Mommy, how are you so pretty?” I looked at her like she was crazy. I’m not even sure if I showered that day and I felt like a hot mess. I am in a size (or 3) larger than I want to be in right now and I’m doing my best just to keep it together most days. I looked at her said said, “Baby, you are so sweet, but you are beautiful too. In every way.” Our children see us as beautiful, we are their everything and I think that we all need to remember that.
When days seem long, or you are so tired you just want to cry, just remember that they are watching. And they think you are beautiful. And I think that someone upstairs thinks so too ;).
