Today a young lady was sharing with me that she still sleeps better at her moms than at home. We were discussing my 5 year old who refuses to sleep at night without her back rub! I mentioned they both were clearly spoiled!!! Lol She immediately told me I was a great mom and she hoped to be like me one day with her kids!

I was flattered and immediately responded that Great mothers tend to duplicate themselves!

Her mother is incredible in just the things that were shared with me about her! In my responses I began to realize I was mimicking my mothers actions towards me. I was just doing what I knew. Raising my daughter with motherhood examples to follow. As different as my mother and I were , it wasn’t until I became a mother that I realized she wasn’t that bad after all! My kids drive me crazy daily, but I’m often commended for how I am with them! I would normally shrug it off, but today I sat in it, and just breathed! I’m not as bad as I think at times, I’m not perfect, I make mistakes, I cry often, I yell at times, I walk away when I’m crying or feeling defeated! But I’m my mother, I have the strength to keep going and create another me/ her!

Keep going mommas! You are creating a mother to someone’s mother! Make sure you can relax and know you set a phenomenal example!

Thanks Mom,

A Mom
