💕To all the mummies out there.💕
Did you know that flamingo mothers lose their beautiful pink colour as they raise their babies due to all the love and energy they put into caring for their little ones. They become less and less pink as they care for their young.🥹
I found this so poignant.
As human mummies, especially when our kids are tiny, it can feel like we are losing our colour too. Our vibrant colours begin to fade as we morph into a very fulfilled but slightly less sparkly version of our old selves. We love being a parent, but every now and then we miss who we were.
The gorgeous thing about the flamingo is that, as her babies become less needy and her energy restores, her beautiful pink colour comes back. Thankfully, so will ours. We’ll get our pink back ladies!💪🏻
