I had my second daughter a week ago. It’s pretty clear I can successfully clone myself. I now have two little girls who look like me.

Now that baby is out, I have started my journey to healthy living! I eat more appropriate portion sizes and as healthy as possible. I am patiently waiting for my incision to heal and for the okay from the doctor to start working out. I do however need to work on my water intake. I have definitely been slacking on hydration.

I feel so determined. I want to show my daughters that anything is possible. I’m ready to go from having no energy to feeling up to anything.

My husband has been so supportive already and I’m so blessed!!

Yesterday’s late night thoughts.

Parenthood isn’t always pretty or easy. It’s exhausting and hectic but so amazing all at the same time. Sometimes you’re so tired and run down that you wonder how you’re going to keep going, and then you somehow find that extra bit of energy to keep going. In all honesty, you always find a way to keep going. Even when you have a break down, when you feel useless, when you don’t feel good enough. You keep pushing forward. You may cry, you may want to scream. You may wish for time to yourself. Yes, you’ll have days where you crumble and you’re emotionally or mentally unstable for a brief period and that’s ok. We can’t always be strong, but even in our weakness. We keep going. Why? Because we know there’s someone watching. There’s someone who needs us. There’s someone who despite it all, loves us more than anything. Our children may drive us crazy, may push us to our absolute limits. But they remind us of what love can do. Love keeps us going. Especially love from a child. We can make mistakes, we can feel like we aren’t enough, but at the end of the day there is someone who thinks otherwise. Someone who finds our embrace soothing. Someone who finds comfort in hearing our voice. Someone who doesn’t see our flaws like we do, because they simply love us. They watch us continuously care for them, pick them up when they’re down. We give them safety and security. They may not voice that they know/see how much we do for them, but they show it with their love. So when you’re feeling down. When life has become rough. Take a moment to remember each time your child has randomly shown you affection. Remind yourself how that love has kept you going. Has made you strong. In your child’s eyes, you’re superwomen/man and there is no one like they’re mom or dad. Yes, things may change as they age. They may briefly become distant while finding them self as a teenager or young adult. But I promise you, you’re children will always remember the love they receive. They will always remember a mom or dad who kept trying, who kept pushing forward. If you feel like you’ve made mistakes or that you could do better by your children. Just know that everyday is a fresh start. Children are so forgiving and they truly believe in their parents because our love is so important to them that they’re always willing to see the good over the bad. Love truly conquers all. 💕

I just don’t know what’s wrong with me. I can’t for the life of me concentrate. All I want to do is sleep. My head feels so heavy and clouded. I never got like this in my last pregnancy. Must be the hormones? I just want it to go away. I want to feel like myself again. It’s getting hard to hide from my daughter, today she asked me why I was upset. I didn’t think I was acting upset.
