Sometimes when Momcozy posts these themes or hashtag events like “Where were you supported today?” or “Who supported you this week?” I uhh.. struggle to post because I feel like I can’t fully relate. I thought my only village was this online Momcozy village. I thought that right now only Momcozy supports me, but then again, Momcozy also helps remind me to pause and realize that I DO have support, even if it looks different from what I imagined.
So here I am, choosing gratitude today. (Long post and a little bragging ahead)
I’m grateful for my husband and my sister in law for supporting me in the ways they can, whether big or small. I try my best to appreciate it all, even during the overwhelming and overstimulating moments when I feel too drained to notice anything at all.
My husband works beyond hard. He goes beyond his responsibility. He works 3 jobs to financially support our family and even when he’s exhausted, he still finds time to laugh with us, play with our children, and make memories together. He always tries to spoil me in the sweetest ways through love, cooking, thoughtful gestures, food, gifts, humor, and with just EVERYTHING really.
And to my sister in law, she’s one of the busiest women I know with 6 children to take care of, yet she still finds time for us. She’s the reason why we live in Sacramento right now and I will forever be grateful for her. I always tell her she’s the reason why we are here in California, even here in the USA.
She wears so many different hats in life. You guys might have seen her somewhere or on TV or something. She works anywhere and everywhere, literally. She works with KVIE and PBS, helps as one of the board directors for a food bank, has her own business, and still somehow shows up for me and my family no matter how busy she gets. She already has so much going on in her life, but she still visits us when she can so the kids can have playdates with their cousins, and she even plans little things like our roller skating days together.
Support doesn’t always look perfect or huge. Sometimes it’s simply someone trying their absolute best for you every single day. Happy Mother’s Day to all of us mamas out here trying our very best every single day! ![]()
