I know some days are hard, mama. I know some days you feel like you aren’t cut out for it. I know the guilt bombards you when you lose your cool and yell. I know breathing gets heavy when you think thoughts like you are failing.  I know how hard it is to stay patient when every no to your toddler is in one ear and out the other. I know how hard it is when it’s one refusal after the other. Every whine and cry adds to your exhaustion. The thought of just wanting a break and you can’t get one…kills you. The thought that you aren’t enjoying motherhood in this moment kills you. I see you, mama. It’s hard.

It also doesn’t mean you aren’t deserving. And just because you feel like you are a bad mom doesn’t mean you are one.

You are human. You are not super mom. Because we are HUMAN. We get burned out. We get tired. We get impatient. We get irritated. We get frustrated.

But mama, you are capable. You are enough. You are worthy. You are deserving of those babies. You are doing a great and SUPER job because you are doing the best you can.

So let’s normalize that SUPER moms are not a thing, it just creates false expectations and makes us feel like we have to measure up to something that is not attainable. You are a CAPABLE mom. Capable of doing a kick a** job and also capable of loving your babies while simultaneously having tough days and needing a break. Motherhood isn’t all rainbows and butterflies…but there is love in every single day.
