Being able to write these words to you right now, as a fellow Mom of littles, leaves me incredibly humbled right now. It was always my DREAM to be a mom. But perhaps the fact that I am doing so after a really long day, helping my teen bonus daughter clean her room, running after my vivacious toddler at the park all while being in my 3rd trimester of pregnancy + still feeling totally energetic + actually excited to go smooch my husband is what gives me “God bumps.”
I wasn’t sure I’d ever get here. This kind of a day used to drain me.
But, not anymore.
I used to believe the lie that either 1. I just couldn’t have it all. I either had to sacrifice myself, my husband or my kids. Or 2. That I couldn’t do it without copious amounts of coffee or energy drinks.
Where I still enjoy a coffee or 2, what I don’t do is LIVE off of it - or the belief that I will never have enough energy to give myself + my marriage. God gave us the gift of our husbands and children.
But, He doesn’t expect us to love them at the constant expense of ourselves or our relationship.
WE are also worthy of love, support, time and care, too.
And yes, energy.
You can be energetic, vibrant + confident - even as a mom of littles.
You don’t have to wait until they’re in school or you experience complete burn out (and if you’re there now, that’s ok - you’re in the right place.) If you’re ready to find a REAL SOLUTION that works for you + your family today + sets you up to succeed in the long-term, then I’m the mentor for ya, girl.
Let’s do this together. Xo, Cheyanne
