motherhood is..
nobody noticing everything you do day to day to keep the house running and the kids happy and healthy, but everybody noticing as soon as you stop doing it.
i see you mama, and in case nobody has told you lately - you are doing an incredible job. π€

These kids? They're listening.
They hear us when we complain. They know when we are talking about them.
They're not ignorant. They're not dumb.
They are so smart. They're processing everything we say. They are building their vocabulary, their character, and developing little personalities based on what they hear.
When I say, "He's my stubborn child..." He hears me.
When you say, "She is wild..." She hears you.
I'll never forget the day my oldest told me he was giving his food to his younger brother because "he's the good eater."
My mouth dropped. I probably said my younger was "the good eater" a dozen times.
You guys, they're listening to everything we say.
If you want your kids thinking they're "hard, stubborn or defiant..." keep telling your friends this out loud in front of them.
But in that same vein⦠If you want your kids knowing they are brave, adventurous, creative and kind, say it for them to hear.
Because they will.

It matters what you say to them.
It matters how you spend your time with them.
It matters how you make them feel.
It matters how you love them with your whole heart and show affection.
It matters how you apologize and invite vulnerability to the conversation.
It matters how you encourage big dreams and tell them the world is theirs.
It matters if you give them a safe place to land.
It matters if you are their biggest advocate and loudest cheerleader.
It matters if you teach them kindness by demonstrating it daily.
It matters if you wipe their tears away and put a bandaid on their scraped-up knee.
This parenting thing isn't something to take lightly. It's a big job. The biggest of them all.
