There are mothers who manage. And mothers who quietly carry everything.
Often, they’re the same.
Many of us learned early on that if something is going to work, someone has to hold it together.
The routine.
The emotions.
The tone of the home.
But over time, that way of holding can become tiring.
Children don’t need a mother who does it all.
They need a mother who is present. One who allows herself to pause.
To notice.
To be with herself so she can truly be with her children.
If this Reel stayed with you, it may be because part of you already senses that there is another way of being.

that doesn’t require constant holding but ALLOWS more space, for everyone.
