Things I Do As A Mom

#lemon8challenge #denim #howdy #houstonrodeo

NRG Stadium-Rodeo

2025/3/6 Edited to

As a mom, experiencing the rodeo season can be both exhilarating and challenging. It’s not just about enjoying the festivities; it involves planning family outings, ensuring kids are safe and engaged, and making countless memories along the way. One of the amazing things you can do is to coordinate outfits that embrace the Western spirit, incorporating denim staples for a classic look. Outdoor activities such as attending rodeo events allow families to bond while experiencing the thrill of competitions and shows. Moreover, the rodeo season isn’t limited to watching; actively participating in community events can create lasting family traditions. Consider organizing playdates around rodeo-themed activities, such as arts and crafts related to cowboy culture or even visiting local farms for educational experiences. Safety is also paramount—teaching children about the importance of respect for animals and the traditions behind rodeo can foster a sense of responsibility and appreciation. By integrating learning with fun, mothers can create a holistic experience that goes beyond just attending events. Documenting these moments, whether through social media or family albums, helps to reflect on the meaningful ways to celebrate together. Ultimately, the rodeo season presents endless opportunities for moms to be involved in their children’s lives while enjoying all the fun that comes with it.

Unhealthy things I am unlearning as a mom 🌸

Being a good mom is my top priority. 1. Punishing emotions. I will not get my daughter in trouble for yelling at me, crying, or anything else. If you were crying and somebody told you you have no reason to be, or that they’ll give you a reason to cry, how would you feel? Worse? 2. Shaming.
