Getting your spark back in motherhood takes time. ✨

After having two kids back to back, I lost myself for a while. Between the sleepless nights, the constant giving, and the weight of mom life. I forgot what it felt like to feel like me.

It’s been a slow journey of rediscovering who I am outside of being “mom.” Some days I feel that spark again — the confidence, the creativity, the joy — and other days it’s still hard. But I’m learning that’s what real motherhood looks like.

If you’re in that season of trying to find yourself again after babies, I see you. You’re not alone and your spark is still in there. 💛
