This picture depicts what I thought mothering would be like-- running through wildflowers and baking cookies. It's slightly different than that....with the kids fighting & me yelling & the trash stinking & the dishes piling....but some moments, some rare, beautiful moments we get here.

  1. So true. We get there too on rare occasions, but most of the time I'm just wading through mess.

    1. And it's those rare moments of amazingness that keep us going....it's so good to have other moms like you to remind each other why we do this
