Sweet article.
A mother’s instinct is probably always right.
Because she’s the mom.
She knows that child best.
When she wants to co-sleep instead of cry it out, she’s probably right.
When she wants to eliminate certain foods from the diet, she’s probably right.
When she wants to discipline her child a certain way, she’s probably right.
When she wants to homeschool. Or public school. Or private school, she’s probably right.
When she wants to skip signing her kids up for all the activities. Or when she wants to sign them up for everything.
She’s probably right.
When she wants to parent her own way, she’s probably right.
Sometimes a mom’s brain can get a little hazy.
Hazy from lack of sleep, worries, to-do’s.
But the heart?
The heart and the gut and the instinct are never wrong.
So mamas, take advice if you want it.
But you have the heart for your child.
And that mama heart?
Unique as it is, it’s most likely right.
