Believe in your children so much the world thinks you are crazy. Then, believe more.

Pet peeve = interrupting someone's story to interject your not fully knowing opinion.

Love is more precious than gold. Can't be bought and can't be sold.

They say don't blink and it couldn't be more true. Time truly flies. So very grateful for my children. I don't take a second for granted.

Being a mom is the biggest blessing of a life time. Not the loudest or easiest blessing, but the kind the wraps itself around your heart and never lets go. #gratitude

Just remember while you're moving forward, chasing purpose, and making progress that everything can change in the blink of an eye. Don't wait for the world to show you how precious life is. Breathe in fresh air, and smell the grass, and touch the world around you. Put the phone down and spend time with the people you truly love. Focus on what truly matters because life doesn't wait. When you're all out of time and there's nothing left to chase, you realize it was never about the finish line. It was about the people and the moments that put a smile on your face.

Is nostr dead? Where are the #nostrichs at?

It is mindblowing to me that this is an unpopular opinion... But the most unhelpful and anger inducing thing is hearing these statements when you are in the trenches with a newborn not sleeping: "Are you ready to start sleep training?" "Your sleep is so important so you can be the best parent." "They are manipulating you" "It's a habit. They aren't actually hungry." Instead, praise me for comforting my baby, offer me a nap while you hold my baby, or bring me a cooked meal. Suggesting negligent parenting practices and suggesting I prioritize my sleep over my BABY'S needs... unhelpful. I said what I said.

Motherhood is one of the hardest, most demanding roles. Anyone can carry the title, but being a good mom requires exhaustive effort, patience, and self-sacrifice. It’s the sleepless nights, the constant worrying if you’re doing it right, and the emotional toll of trying to raise kind, well-rounded humans while sometimes feeling like you’re losing yourself in the process. It is also love in its purest form: their laughter, their hugs, their growth. It’s okay to acknowledge how hard it is—because it’s real… but it’s also okay to give yourself grace in the process. There is nothing more fulfilling and worthwhile than your children. My ultimate goal is to be the best mom for my kids. #motherhood #parenting

Before motherhood, holidays were exciting. Now? They’re pure magic. I was up all night prepping, wrapping gifts, arranging baskets, setting everything just right. Barely slept a wink. But I’m wide awake. Sitting here, sipping my coffee, watching the sun slowly rise, heart racing in anticipation. Waiting for the little footsteps. Waiting to see their faces light up. Waiting for the laughter, the squeals, the joy. This is what it’s all for. The exhaustion, the chaos, the effort.. It all melts away the second I see their smiles. Because holidays as a mother? They hit different. They’re no longer about receiving. They’re about creating magic.

One day you will wish you could go back, not to change anything, but to appreciate it more.

Parenting thoughts... I have done a ton of research and put my kid in proper footwear to support healthy orthopedic development. Where are my other shoe obsessed parents? My kid asked me for crocs today and I almost spit out my water.... no no I don't buy you the cadillac shoes for nothing! Sorry kid, but closed toe sandals with ankle support it is 🤣 Is it just me? Am I the only shoe nerd? #eveningthoughts

Parenting comes with a free trial of exhaustion, self-doubt, and unconditional love.

A Healthy Marriage Hits Different When You’re Raising Littles There’s something truly special about a healthy marriage in the midst of the beautiful chaos of raising little ones. It’s not always glamorous, but it’s where love shows up in the quiet, unspoken moments. It’s the seamless teamwork during the daily whirlwind—the way you silently tag in when a toddler meltdown is brewing or how you both instinctively divide and conquer the endless to-do lists. It’s knowing when to step up for each other without even needing to ask. It’s the late-night pep talks when the house is finally quiet, whispering “We’ve got this” even when you’re both running on fumes. It’s holding space for one another—acknowledging that you’re both stretched thin, yet still finding ways to pour love into each other’s cup. It’s the little things that carry so much weight: the random “I love you” texts in the middle of the day, the shared laughter over something only the two of you would find funny, the quick hugs in the kitchen while the kids run circles around you. It’s also the intentional moments—reminding yourselves that before the sleepless nights, the never-ending laundry piles, and the back-to-back extracurriculars, YOU TWO came first. And you still do. Because a strong marriage is the backbone of a strong family. It’s the foundation on which everything else is built. When your kids see you choosing each other—day after day, in big ways and small—they learn what love, respect, and partnership truly look like. So even in the blur of exhaustion and chaos, keep choosing each other. Keep being a team. Keep finding joy in the little moments. Because the best gift you can give your children isn’t just your love—it’s showing them what it means to love each other well. ❤️ and of course giving them each other ;) iykyk

Today is a Sam Cooke kinda day.

The greatest gift our parents gave us is each other.

I am thankful my child is outspoken and tries to boss me around because I know they will stand up for themselves in the craziness of the world.

Grateful for today #gratefulchain
