It’s Mom Month May (MMM)!
Do you think the official symbol for May should be a flower? Probably because once May comes to mind, a flower or warm weather is always my first thought.
Last night, while scrolling through Beyonce’s internet, I came across a video interviewing a group of moms and their kids, separately asking each of them the same question about how they would describe themselves as a mom or how they describe their mom.
All the moms answered by saying they may not be the most perfect mom, but they do their best even with the mistakes they’ve made.
Then, the kids answered by saying their mom was the best mom in the world. One said his mom is the most beautiful ever, while another said her mom is her number one role model.
What can look like a failure or a mistake to moms, will look like the opposite to kids.
Motherhood is one of the best rollercoasters life offers because it’s an ever-changing, ever-learning, and ever-transforming journey.
If you are expecting, new-to-this, or trying your best Mom, our goal at TBG is to let you know you are doing an awesome job, and we’re here to offer you the biggest virtual hug ever.
Being a good mom comes from experience, not from the books or blogs you read or the videos you watch. You learn as you go.
Don’t be hard on yourself. We see you doing your best, so continue spending your precious time with your little ones (and big ones), loving them with all your heart.
Be proud of yourself, and don’t be discouraged by social media. Give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done, and walk through Mom Month May with your head held high.
We Love You, Mom!
