Tonight I fight the mom guilt, discouragement, and overwhelm.
Today was disrespectful kiddo moments, a bug-ruined bell pepper in the garden, tummy troubles from something I ate, and mom guilt over my kids' emotions.
I know I am not a bad mom, but when it feels my efforts are failing, guilt and discouragement comes easy, and the thought of not good enough hits harder.
I cope by spending my work night taking a much needed hot shower, taking it easy on the homeschool planning, reviewing my plans for grocery shopping tomorrow, and taking a little time for me to watch some brainless videos and listen to uplifting music.
Next I will go to bed.
