Mother. Life bringer. Life giver.
Bearing children, giving birth, raising children, it's hard and it's good. It's beautiful and messy. It's lonely and joyful. The best thing I have ever done and the hardest thing I have ever done. I feel stifled and I feel freedom. I want to birth and nurse 20 more but often having four feels like too many.
How can motherhood be full of such seemingly contradictions? I don't know, but it is. It is all these things. Moments in this journey of motherhood have been so hard and I've felt like such a failure; but I have grown, shifted, experienced deep grace, support and love. I am sincerely a better person for being a Mama to my children. Seeing life through each of their sweet eyes is such a beautiful experience.
As a Mom, you experience this incredible transformation, from a baby inside your womb to a pr***en explaining how video games work. Sometimes I say,
"I made you!” How incredible is that? We are life bringers. Life givers. Motherhood is the most powerful thing I have ever experienced and definitely the most humbling✨
