All in MOM STYLE
I know. Motherhood doesn’t come with one. There’s a trillion books out there covering everything from labor to childbirth to snotty noses to preschool, but the real shit? Nowhere to be found. Where’s my freaking manual? Cuz I need it, today. And I’m not sorry.
I want my damn manual.
I love Instagram. In fact it's one of my favorite places to live. Probably yours too if you're sitting here with me right now. Sip coffee. Scroll. Sip. Scroll. Work. Lunch. Laundry. Homework. Work. Wine. Scroll. More wine. Baby baths. Scroll. Bed. It's exhausting. it's also quite literally composing a small threat to people everywhere. Because it's deceiving. And that's Ok. It's a free country. A free format. But for the record, cropped photos and good lighting can create distrust, because let's be honest, good lighting ain't real life. And today, I would just like to provide you all with a little bit of insight. Because today, let's just call it what it is. Let's just call her Mother-imperfect.
My Grandma was a widow. Lost her husband when she had 5 kids, one being a six month old. And on a week recently where I felt overwhelmed, I thought of her. And I thought, how. And also the woman I met at the grocery store yesterday. She said she had 3 kids who were getting big. Almost to high school. And I said “y’all must be so excited lol!” She smiled and said , “Well, I am. have a great day.” And she got my groceries in my cart and smiled, loving on my babies on the way out
