Today I planned a activity I was sure my toddler would love.
And honestly? It didn’t turn out the way I pictured it would.
But while I was focused on what went wrong, she was focused on what went right. She was curious. She was excited. She was discovering! She kept saying look at that!
It reminded me of something I think a lot of moms need to hear. Our children don’t need perfect activities or pinterest perfect moments. They don’t need us to get everything right. They just need us to sit with them, explore with them and see the world through their eyes for a little while.
Maybe we’re all carrying around a version of motherhood that was never meant to exist. 🫶✨
