My every day, every thought, every breath is for my son. Yes, I value myself but he comes first. I have sacrificed my body, mind, food, sleep, and will sacrifice numerous other things in my life all for him, and I am happy to do so. He, however, is the ONLY person I value you above myself.
Previously in life I allowed certain behaviors. I have allowed my feelings to get hurt and my time to get wasted. I allowed others the power to alter how my day went and change my feelings of self worth. Well, this should go without saying but as a mother, as someone who values myself I will not be swayed in my adoration for myself or my family by your lack of manners, awareness or caring. I will not allow ANYONE to devalue our feelings, our time, our presence. I will move mountains to protect this boy from ever feeling as if he is not valued. I say this seemingly vague status because in the past year and a half I have had some situations arise, ones that don't need details, that allowed me to sink into a place that I do not like. This was both my fault as well as others but regardless of blame or how I got here I am here now and making it painfully aware that this isn't continuing. Be there, be present, be kind or buzz off <3
