I don’t think you ever look back and wish you spent less time with your children 🤍
Almost 11 years as a full-time stay-at-home mam — no crèche, no childminder, no drop-offs. Just us. It’s been beautiful, but also exceptionally hard at times… especially during the seasons where I carried mornings and bedtimes alone.
There were long days, tired nights, and moments where I questioned everything. So much respect and love to the single m**s and solo parents who do this without a break — you are incredible.
Truthfully, there were times — especially in the baby years — when I did wish the days away. Exhausted, overwhelmed, just trying to get through. But looking back now, I see how quickly it all passed.
I was never the mam counting down to school runs or the end of holidays. I always wanted this — to be with my own kids, and thankfully, they’ve always wanted that too.
And when he is home, their dad is such a steady support — even with the long working hours, we’ve always been a team 🤍
I’m also so grateful for the little side path that’s opened up for me over the last few years — holding space through sound healing, cacao ceremonies, yoga, and reiki. It’s been such a beautiful outlet for me.
Small but always steady — my family and friends who’ve been there through the tough times.
Love to all the m**s doing it the way that’s best for their family 🤍
It’s not always easy, but it’s everything 🤍
