I say it all the time: parenthood makes you soft 😅😭
While this affirmation is meant to be used in labor (your cervix must soften, open, and release in order to give birth), it’s honestly perfect for every stage of parenthood.
Becoming a parent causes you to soften, giving you a much deeper ache and love for everyone around you.
It breaks you open, leaving you to reassemble a brand new (better) you.
And it forces you to realize and release the things (and sometimes people) that no longer serve you.
It’s terrifying, and painful, and the most beautiful transformation you’ll ever experience.
🥂 Cheers to being a bunch of softies! The world is better for it.
