How motherhood has changed me for the better🤱🏻🤍

Motherhood has altered my life entirely in the best way possible. I’m not the same girl who got off that operating table. Being a mother made me become strong and made me stop caring what others thought of me.

Being a people pleaser my whole life was mentally draining. I felt like I was stretching myself for everyone but ME. Deep down I felt like I never really had any true friends.

Now all my attention and focus is on my babies. They’ve given me purpose and they love me for who I am. My whole life I’ve been told I’m too much or I talk too much and so on, but my babies look at me like I’m the lottery and it’s the best feeling ever.

At first I wanted to go to college — my family pushed it my whole life — however deep down I felt I had a bigger calling. I wanted to be a stay at home mom. I wanted to be there for my babies as much as possible and I’m blessed to be able to.

To some it may seem like I gave my life up or that I’m not doing much, but I’m on the clock 24/7 with my babies and although I love it so much, at times it can be hard. But they’re so worth it :white_heart:

I relate so much to this as a people pleaser myself motherhood has really taught me a lot of how to say no and set bigger and bolder boundaries!!!

Truly I would put myself and my own needs aside to help others and make them happy rather than myself now with my kid I will never do that my boundaries on my babies stick cause they are my world and now that they love me for who I am I could care less about the opinions of others :face_holding_back_tears:

THIS cause seriously it flies by so fast seeing them achieve there goals and hit milestones is so bittersweet but being able to be there while they do is the biggest gift :white_heart:
