‘I’m too loud, too quiet. A hot mess, too organized. I’ll always be too much for some, and not enough for others.’: Woman finally accepts she is ‘not everyone’s cup of tea’

To the ones that matter, you are enough!

"We over-analyze texts. We wonder why we didn’t get the invite. We see glances, whispers and assume they're directed at us. We waste so much of our time worrying about other people’s opinions only to leave ourselves feeling empty. But, why? For what? This is YOUR journey. Stop doubting your own ...

We Need To Remind Ourselves That Strong-Willed Kids Grow Up To Be Leaders

I try to remember this every day!!

“I’m not bossy. I’m a leader.”

Such a great idea!

Sunday self-serve is ready for the week. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 After grocery shopping I always wash and prep all of the food that is considered self-serve in our house. Self-serve for my kiddos means help yourself without asking and it’s always an okay snack (any time of day, bedtime snacks, etc.) It also helps me when I’m packing lunches and snacks, or as a side dish when dinner doesn’t include something they will definitely eat or if we have a busy/late night. There’s something about having things truly ready to grab that makes kids eat it. I could leave the baby carrots in a bag or leave the grapes on the stems but they wouldn’t eat it. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

PS- For the fruits and veggies I do put covers on the containers so they don’t get gross.

I love this so much!

I always tell my children that they can start over anytime. No matter what. Just because something bad happens in a day doesn't mean the entire day has to feel that way.

These are all great suggestions.
