GRIEF
Okay, let’s get right to it and get real because I’m not even good with
small talk anyway, haha! The past 17 months have been incredibly hard for
me, and my family. It’s just been one of those really pressing, stretching,
almost unbearable seasons for us. So many unknowns and disappointments. So.
Many. Unknowns. So much waiting. So many things I was hopeful for but then
lost it as quick as it came because it didn’t go the way I thought it
would…and honestly that’s just life. Listen, your girl was struggling over
here!
“I WILL NEVER HOMESCHOOL MY KIDS” has most definitely come out of my house
20 plus times. I would always say, and I quote, “I will never homeschool my
kids. God is gonna have to come and talk to me in his ‘Big God Voice’ and
tell me specifically, because I will never homeschool.”
Y’all. I’ve been pregnant six whole times in 8 years. Sometimes even saying that out loud blows my mind. I can’t even fathom it honestly. Like when did that even happen? It all feels like a blur. And right now, I have so many friends who are currently pregnant or just had babies in the last few months. Even my sister is due in a week or so. And all these pregnant bellies and newborns really just got me thinking about how much is NOT talked about regarding pregnancy, delivery and the newborn stage. I just had a conversation with a sleep deprived mom of a six-week-old talking about all things baby. I can remember going through every single thing she shared with me and honestly sometimes all you need is someone to tell you is, “hey friend, I’ve totally been there too” or “Sister! That is totally normal!!” Well, let’s be real that’s probably not all you need. First and foremost, you need a nap, a shower, and a live-in maid who’s great at cooking (I’ll take one of those please!). Buuuuut I can’t help you there. My hope is that you’ll read this and laugh, and possibly learn a thing or two if you have never done the whole mom thing yet. So, grab a drink and some chips and salsa and let’s get real with each other! Disclaimer-I’m about to get veryyyy real with you guys, so if you don’t want to know the whole truth, just move along people!
