Some days I wish my teens could see inside my heart for just a minute.
They’d see the quiet worrying…
The late-night wondering if I said the right thing…
The way I replay conversations and hope they felt loved, even when I was setting limits.
If I hover, remind, check in, or ask “one more question,” it’s never about control.
It’s about care.
It’s about loving someone so deeply that it spills out in imperfect ways.
So to our teens (and to the parents reading this):
There is so much love underneath the reminders, the boundaries, the concern.
And to the moms doing their best...your love is felt more than you know, even when it doesn’t look like it in the moment. 🤍
