Finding your Calm through the Chaos

Finding your Calm through the Chaos

I know how overwhelming our days can be as busy moms. My day starts at 6 am. I get up and moving, and I’m in the kitchen by 6:15 making breakfasts and lunches for my kids and husband. I stand in the kitchen in the morning mentally preparing for my day thinking about the list ahead of me. My kids go to school but some of you have your children home with you. When my kids go to school I try to fit in work, errands, laundry, dishes, meal planning, cooking, and the list goes on and on. I tell moms all the time that motherhood is not for the weak. It’s the most beautiful, rewarding and overwhelming job that we will ever have. I wanted to cry last night at 10:30 PM when I was still doing laundry. Throw in a broken washing machine to add to the fun. I took a deep breath and started to giggle. I notice that there are moments when we can cry, laugh, yell and/or take a deep breath. I think I did a little of all those last night.

My friend texted me yesterday and said, “I don’t know how you do what you do.” I think most of us are in awe of our moms friends and our own moms. I also want to tell her how amazing it is to feel seen by her. My husband and kids do give me appreciation and I give myself appreciation – but hearing it from her yesterday really warmed my heart!

If you've ever felt like you're drowning in a sea of schedules, homework, meals, emotions, and endless to-do lists, I want you to always remember that you are never alone.
