Mother’s Day feels different when you’re a mom.
I see motherhood differently now — not just in the joyful moments, but in the quiet strength it takes to keep showing up.
I see the moms standing at the front desk, looking at their calendar trying to carve out time for themselves between naps, pickups, meals, childcare and sports schedules…just to deal with their own aches and pains.
I see the moms who almost cancelled because there was always one more thing to do or their day took an unexpected turn… but came anyway.
I see the women carrying grief and loss, navigating a world where reminders of what they’re missing seem to be everywhere — and somehow still finding the strength to show up.
Today, I’m thinking of all of you.
The ones deep in motherhood, the ones longing for it, the ones grieving it, the ones doing their best in seasons no one else can fully see.
Taking time for yourself is never selfish. Showing up for yourself is a kind of strength that deserves to be celebrated, too.
Happy Mother’s Day 🤍
