Rough mom week 😅

I came to uplift and left humbled 😂 and oddly enough I think that is motherhood in a nutshell 🙌🏼 i guess some of the best mom life lessons are simple and straightforward.

If you are a mom and have had a rough week, you’ll get up, (because that’s what moms do 😂) and you’ll try again next week, you’ll probably make a mistake here and there but you’ll remember what made you fall last week and because of it you’ll refine yourself to be a better mom this week.🫶🏼

You are such a good mom and you are doing WAY better than you think you are! Love you mama, keep up the great work! 💃🏼✨

... Read moreHaving gone through several rough weeks myself as a mom, I can truly relate to the feeling of being both humbled and uplifted by the challenges motherhood brings. One thing I’ve learned is that every tough moment is also a lesson that shapes us into better parents. When you stumble or make mistakes, it can feel discouraging, but those experiences teach us what to improve and how to adapt going forward. For instance, I once had a week where nothing seemed to go smoothly — sleepless nights, toddler tantrums, and everything spiraling out of control. But each day, I reminded myself that getting up and trying again is what defines motherhood. Sharing these real, imperfect moments helped me embrace the #momfail and #hotmessmom moments, making me laugh instead of feeling defeated. Connecting with supportive communities like #momssupportingmoms and #momshelpingmoms has been a game changer for me. Knowing that other moms are facing similar struggles and cheering me on makes the journey less lonely and more manageable. If you’re having a rough mom week, remember: you are not alone, and you are doing WAY better than you think. Each week is a fresh start, a chance to refine your approach and keep growing. Celebrate the small victories, be kind to yourself, and keep moving forward. Motherhood is a journey full of ups and downs, but it’s also filled with immense love and strength that make it all worth it.

Rough start to the week 😒
This is not the start I wanted to a Monday morning. This is what I get for trying to work without coffee. My hands move but my brain is still asleep. In the end we got it off but it took a lot longer than it should have. #digitalplanning #lemon8challenge #subaru #carsoflemon8 #toolsofthetra

When I’ve had a hard week, my space is usually the first thing to reflect it. Dishes pile up, laundry sits a little too long, and everything starts feeling heavier than it should. I used to think I needed a full deep clean to feel better, but that honestly just made me more overwhelmed. Now I fo

Surviving as a mom
✨Wake up early (like extremely) Even 20–30 minutes before your baby wakes up makes a huge difference. It gives you quiet time to get ready, drink or make your coffee in peace, or just mentally prepare for the day without rushing or feeling overwhelmed. ✨ Get baby ready at night Pick out outfit
