Confession Time
I love to blog hop but sometimes I fall into the comparison trap. I see these beautiful blogs, written by young moms, who seem to have it all together. I was a mess when my boys were little. The first year was wonderful (he was my easy baby) yet I struggled with insecurity. When my oldest son was 16 months I gave birth to son #2 and I felt like my life fell apart. I was a mess, a big HUGE mess. 4-1/2 years later I had son #3 and, while I thoroughly enjoyed him, I was still somewhat of a mess! To be honest, in the past 2 years I have started to come out of my mess but I feel I have a long way to go. How can these young moms look like they have it all together? Maybe they have wisdom beyond their years, a grandma who lives next door or maybe I should just stop comparing?

ReplyDeleteIngrid- The devil's biggest lie is that we are the only ones who struggle- it simply isn't true- no one has it together and if they say they do, they lie. You are not alone. I love your tender beautiful heart!
