“But unfortunately, that isn’t our reality, infertility is… and it sucks.”
“Logically, I probably should be done, but my heart wants one more.”
“I thought my calendar would be busy with school events and sports practices, not therapies and Medicaid calls. I didn’t imagine motherhood resembling full-time nursing.”
“It’s our job as parents to be the calm for our children, not join the chaos.”
“You might feel like a failure sometimes, I know I do, but you’re not. You keep fighting every day, and that alone makes you amazing.”
“I love my daughter and I want to feel love for her. That means I need to take ‘me time’ while she naps. When my daughter wakes up, she gets a happy, refreshed mama who prioritized herself.”
“I don’t even know who I thought ‘they’ were. I just knew they would take my son, and it would kill me. Anxiety became my companion; delusion became my guide.”
“We deal with the hard, go to sleep, and do it all again. We need to normalize that motherhood is so hard.”
“Two years ago, my three-year-old daughter, Mila, looked at me with sadness and asked, ‘Mommy, why doesn’t anyone in my books have cochlear implants, like me?’ My heart sank. I knew I had to do something about the lack of hearing representation. Because if I didn’t, then who would?”
“I finally reach the window, and sure enough, there is a man taking a dung five feet away. He is smiling at us. A weird, creepy smile. At this point, I’m desperately trying to close the blinds so none of my other students get a glimpse, but the classrooms were old and everything sucked. As I was trying to put the blinds down, they broke. THEY BROKE.”
