I Am a Mother
"'Being a stay at home mum is harder on my sanity. Being a working mum is harder on my heart...' and I’d like to add trying to work from home around your kids in 23-minute shifts can leave you feeling like you’re failing both.
As someone who has done all three, I know first hand that each scenario has its challenges, but also its joys... There were days as a SAHM I longed for the solo commute with an uninterrupted coffee, and days as a working mum I would be crying on a deadline just wanting to be home bathing my babies... So whichever spot you are in right now, if you’re not feeling like you’re doing enough, or managing it all - just know that this mother juggle leaves most of us feeling like we’re failing something at some time. So instead of focusing on what we’re not doing, let’s focus on what we are, on the little joys, because however we’re doing it, we’re doing a good job 💓"
