I love being his mom. I love being his safe place, his favorite person, his everything.
But some days, I just want to finish a coffee while it’s still hot, sit in silence, or exist for a little while without someone needing something from me.
And then I miss him the second he’s not around.
Motherhood is such a funny contradiction. You can want a break from it all and still know you’d never trade it for anything.
If you’ve felt this, you’re not a bad mom. You’re just a human being who happens to be someone’s whole world. 🤍
Send this to a mom who needs to hear it.
