It’s 2:17am and the house is quiet but my brain is not. I’m thinking about my running to do list, about a parent who needs support, about whether I made the right decision earlier in the day. Alongside that I’m also thinking about whether I played with the baby enough today and gave him everything he needed.
No one really talks about that part. The part where you love your work. And you love your children. And sometimes you feel stretched between both. I don’t have it perfectly balanced. Some days I feel strong and
some days I feel like an exhausted mom second-guessing everything and unsure of where to start.
But here’s the truth:
I’m building a team I believe in.
And I’m raising little humans I adore.
And both matter.
If you’re awake in the middle of the night carrying more than anyone sees, you’re not failing and you’re not alone!
If you’re a working parent like me, know that I see you 💗
