Hey Mama,

If you’re reading this its probably because you know what heaviness feels like. You know what joy and sadness feels like at the exact same time. You know what overwhelming guilt feels like because you have such a beautiful life.. how could you be sad? You know how to wear and be so many faces for so many people. How to hide the dark and live in the light. Isn’t it exhausting? Some of the happiest pictures and moments we post we are really deep in shit. There are so many of us fighting right now. Trying to come up for air in between all the chaos, the constant, and the need to always be something for our humans. How many times we say we are ‘Fine” or I am just “Tired” because that is easier to say than the mountain we feel upon our chest. 

What a beautiful and hard thing it is to be our own human being while also being a mother. How lonely and exhausting it really can be. 
If you’re here right now in the midst of hard I want to remind you to keep fighting. Keep searching for the light. Keep clinging onto anything that brings you peace and joy. 
You are so loved and needed in this world and to your babies. Keep going mama.
If you’re past a season of hard I want to tell you I am so proud of you.
You’re still here fighting and breathing even though it felt like a breath would never come. Hug someone or thank someone who helped you get through that season. ( Even if its just you mama).

We are all surviving, searching, hoping, praying, waiting, needing, wanting, cherishing, navigating. Be kind, love SO DAMN BIG, Speak up, talk to someone, hug someone, and keep fighting.
YOU ARE LOVED 

xoxo
