Sharing real life as a young mamma just wanting to do it differently. A whole lot of grace and a little bit of lace.
Laying in bed cuddled up with a sick little boy. It’s in these moments that being a mom is hard. I can choose to be caring, nurturing, patient. Or I can lash out, feel angry that he’s my responsibility, and go drown my sorrows out in junk food.But at the end of the day, my …
