Today should have been one of those productive days where I'm able to complete the laundry- organize our living space and start packing for our three family cabin trip next week. But, my big plans don't mean anything to a Giant, frustrated I take the child (as I call him when we are at ends) get in the shower. Fill up the tub and let us soak in some Florida water and suds. We had to have a talk, I asked him for patience and the time to allow mommy to get things done- he just looked at me with the widest eyes and I swear I heard him say "but mommy I need you right now" and I melted. It's true, he needs me always. Especially when I'm the busiest and imagining a to do list to completion. He needs me when I'm hungry- and when I'm feeling like I have no more to give. He needs me even when I'm dying to shave my underarms and my legs- as these things he is completely unaware of. It's of no ones fault- it's just what mothers do. It all. And then some, so as I re heat this pot of coffee for the 6th time today (because it's faster to forget about) and sit my best friend on my back- to get things done- I'm reminded that even when I feel like he's learning how to be on his own a bit day by day- he will always need me, and I'm here to stay for him. | #HonestMotherhood #WearAllTheBabies #modbod #BodyBySirius #bodypositivity
