    If you have a mother who always had a smile on her face, packed you lunch every day and made sure that your home was always spotless, you were extremely lucky. But even if your house was a bit messy, you sometimes showed up to school a few minutes late and you ate frozen meals 7 days a week, that’s fine too! I’m sure your parents were just doing their best, and as long as they showered you with love, you were still extremely fortunate.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Being a mom is a very challenging role to take on. Suddenly, you have no time for yourself, your entire world revolves around your children, and you’re faced with immense pressure from social media and society to be perfect. We really should be giving mothers more slack! Because if they can manage to keep their kiddos clean, happy and healthy, they’re doing a wonderful job.

    While motherhood is often glamorized in the media and online, it’s important that we acknowledge just how difficult it can be, as well as how much support moms need to thrive. It’s not all beautiful moments with a baby sleeping peacefully on your chest or your toddler saying that they love you for the first time. There’s hormones, exhaustion, judgment from others and a never-ending stream of responsibilities.

    Meanwhile, trying to balance a career with having kids is a lose-lose situation, as most moms are either pushed out of the workforce, or their careers are penalized after they become mothers. Then they’re shamed for either not “doing it all” or not spending enough time with their children. And let’s not forget that moms are still doing more domestic labor than their husbands, even when they’re the breadwinner.

    I have a friend that really hates spiders. He most definitely would run away from it. If he had a flame thrower he would use it on that spider.

    So how can a mom juggle all of her responsibilities without losing her mind? Mommy Diary shared a post on her blog including some things that she wishes she knew before having kids, and she first noted that it does not come naturally to everyone. Some mothers won’t feel amazing and whole at first, and that’s okay! Having a child is a huge change, and it’s completely normal if it takes some time to adjust to your new lifestyle. Resist the urge to put immense pressure on yourself, especially in the beginning.

    I didn't have the best childhood (lower income/class, overweight, molested, bullied etc) and I am afforded only a few good, bright memories. But those few include camping with my single mother as a tween. We had "tricked out" (added some storage boxes, home-sewn curtains & an old mattress) an old van that required fiddling with the carburetor (via the "dog house" engine mount between the front seats) to maintain an idle and doors that wouldn't lock, but it was assumed to be safer than tent camping for us girls. During the daytime, my sister and I played and explored together while, much to our young frustration, our mom slept all day. Only as an adult did I learn that Mom slept all day because she was awake all night, listening for danger and anything trying to open the un-lockable van doors. She was "protecting" us but we never knew that we should be in fear of the unknown.

    Mommy Diary also suggests that new moms try to just embrace the chaos. It’s impossible to control everything, and every parent has days when they just “can’t seem to get it together,” she explains. So there’s nothing wrong with snuggling up on the couch and having a movie day with your kiddos. Or ordering pizza instead of baking the casserole that you had planned. Give yourself grace, and remember your priorities: taking care of everyone in your household, including yourself.

    I felt strongly and deeply compelled to do that same thing for several of my son's friends throughout his youth and young adulthood. Utah's predominant religion doesn't leave much wiggle room on the subject -- ANY subject that doesn't "fit" their norm -- and my heart breaks watching people suffer hate from those that should, in TRUE Christian form, love them as their higher power does. These kids have become my sons and daughters from other mothers, enriching my life beyond measure. And I wouldn't trade a single one for all the material riches in the universe.

    My 18 year old son calls me to check on me when he’s out with his friends and always says he loves me before hanging up. I love knowing that he’s not embarrassed to love his mum

    Now, one particularly difficult aspect of being a mom that mothers have to actively stop themselves from doing is comparing themselves to other parents. Social media is flooded with momfluencers with seemingly perfect lives and infinite pieces of advice about how to improve your children’s lives. Don’t even think about letting them look at screens, never feed them candy and make sure that they know about politics by the age of ten. Online spaces for moms can become extremely toxic and overwhelming very quickly.

    To help moms stop falling into the trap of comparing themselves to others, The Mother Nurture recommends replacing comparison with something else. Instead, when confronted with different styles or parenting or different lifestyles, it might be better to respond with curiosity, empathy, love and/or understanding. 

    You might decide to take ideas from what another mom is doing and use some of her advice. Or, you may realize that what you’re doing already is much better for your family. But refrain from judging yourself, and trust that you know what’s best for your kiddos.

    Also, I get to finally be SAHP, a dream of mine, and go back to college!

    As we can clearly see from this list, maintaining a healthy sense of humor can go a long way in making a mother’s life easier. She’s already taking on one of the toughest jobs in the world, but if she can manage to approach the difficult moments with laughter and looking on the bright side, she’s truly a superhero. Plus, research has found that humor can be an extremely beneficial t**l for parents. So try not to sweat the small stuff, mama. You’re doing great!

    First Thanksgiving As A Mom

    Prepared home-cooked meal on stove and counter representing wholesome moms being their amazing selves.

    First Thanksgiving as a mom. We don’t have family or friends in town, and couldn’t afford to travel this year, so I cooked an entire Thanksgiving dinner for the 3 of us. It’s nothing special, but I’m really proud of it considering my extremely limited counter space in our tiny apartment and my limited cooking experience. It was also my 8-month-old son’s first time with table food; he did really well.

    My Mom Has Secretly Been Getting Me Uranium Glass

    Glowing green vintage glassware displayed on a table, evoking warmth and happiness in wholesome mom moments.

    I absolutely love uranium glass. It’s so fascinating to me, anything radioactive really is. Maria Skłodowska-Curie has been such an inspiration to me for as long as I can remember, and inspired me to major in chemistry and hopefully work in some kind of nuclear chemistry field in the future. I got my first piece of uranium glass a few months ago, right before I went off to college. I finally had the opportunity to go back home for the weekend from college, and I found out my mom has secretly been getting me uranium glass to add to my collection! I can’t describe the joy I feel about this. I just needed to share.

    That lamb is going to grow up a sheep and it is going to need to be sheared at least once a year.

    Yes 100%, but there are farmers/ferriers who you can take the sheep to in order to get it done. Some even do it for free if they keep the fleece.

    I Have Fibromyalgia, So My Mom Gave Me Two Bottles Of Hot Water To Wash My Hands

    Two insulated coffee pots by a kitchen sink with a soap dispenser and tiled backsplash, capturing wholesome mom moments.

    It's winter in South America. I have fibromyalgia, and it gets worse in the cold, but the last two days have been the coldest since winter started.
    We don't have a gas heater (it's not that common here, especially in older buildings), and I feel pain every time I have to wash my hands because of the cold water from the faucet.
    So today my mom gave me two thermal bottles of hot water to wash my hands, and I'm not in pain anymore.
    Best mom ever.

How can you send them back??!! Had him 11 years now and he's coming up for 15. Still a loud, easily over-excited nutter with too much energy. We love him dearly.
