I occasionally catch myself thinking—just for a moment—that maybe I’m not as good a mom as everyone else; perhaps I’m not as dedicated or determined. But when I think back on my motherhood story, the reality is that choosing not to nurse my babies brought a great deal of peace to those early newborn days.

“During the first years after the divorce it was challenging to get used to the silence and summer not feeling as carefree anymore.

Age five has brought with it many challenges. The toddler years meant we were dealing with a child who would throw tantrums over things that didn’t make sense. Now, she understands things much better. She wants to do things HER way.

Out of all the things V learned in school that day, she’s most excited to tell me about this fact. She and her friends love to talk about their favorite colors.There’s a sweetness about my five-year-old little girl that I want to remember.

Recently, my kids have reached an age where our typical go-to Disney and Netflix cartoon movies aren’t hitting the same. My husband and I started thinking back to our childhoods, what movies we were watching from ages 7+, as we slowly moved away from watching the cartoon classics.

Bring back the “classics” with some family friendly 90s and 00s movie night picks.

“But growth often requires disappointing people who were more invested in the version of you that was easiest for them to understand.”

When you lose friends it can be hard, but sometimes it leads you to your true people and the friendships that stay.
