Yesterday, we celebrated my son’s second birthday.
They say time is a thief—and they’re right. Somehow, I now have a 3.5-year-old and a 2-year-old.
I spent a lot of time reflecting yesterday. Thinking about how much has changed over the last two years, how much I’ve changed. Motherhood has transformed me in ways I never expected.
I’ve never trusted myself more—and yet doubted myself just as deeply. I’ve never felt so lost, and so whole, all at once.
Pregnancy was a sacred time for me. While I was growing their voices, I found my own. I started asking the hard questions about my health, my care, and what I wanted—regardless of what was convenient for others. That shift empowered me—not just during birth, but in postpartum and in parenting too.
When my son showed signs of speech and motor delays, I felt strongly that he needed extra support. Others told me it would all work out in time, but my gut said otherwise. We brought in early intervention, and he’s done incredibly well. Maybe it would’ve happened on its own. Maybe not. But I had to trust myself, both for him and for my own peace of mind.
Motherhood is full of decisions that can feel overwhelming. I’m two years postpartum, and no, I’m not “back to normal.” I’m not trying to be. I’ve stepped into a new version of myself.
If you’re in the thick of it, I see you. I’ve been there.
Just know this:
Your voice is not too loud.
It’s not too much.
It’s not too late.
It’s powerful.
And it can change everything.
