To all the tired mamas out there: you’re not alone! I read this to my children this morning, and it spoke to my heart, too. Just leaving it here to encourage you, as well.
Even in your
Uncertainty
And even in
Your waiting
You have made it
This far. And
That is worth
Celebrating.
– Morgan Harper Nichols
We’ve all learned a lot about living with uncertainty and handling different seasons this past year, haven’t we. It’s so important to find ways to fill your own bucket before you try and fill everyone else’s.
You really have made it this far. It was no mean feat, and it’s worth acknowledging, before you beat yourself up over all that you haven’t done!
This page is from a gorgeous wee book called ‘All Along You Were Blooming’ that I treated myself to for the new year, knowing it’s one that I would appreciate as well as be able to share with my kids (so that makes it a homeschool expense, in my books!). I admit it: it just looks pretty sitting with the Bible on my bedside table and draws me back to read another page each day.
Then of course there’s the daily doses of (far too much) coffee, and chocolate.
It’s the little things.
The ordinary things – right?!
What about you? What helps you keep going?
