Mothers with babies...sometimes you need help...sometimes you need a break...sometimes you feel lonely. Surrounding yourself with reminders and with people who encourage you helps. Remind yourself that you're doing very meaningful work...have a master plan... What do you want to see in your children?

Sometimes you look your best, other times you don't...
Sometimes you forget to put on your ear-rings or make-up because you're in a hurry or there was an unexpected poop-incident...
No matter how you look or feel on any day, take note that you're doing a great job...don't downplay your roles or duties. You have the beautiful opportunity of bringing up a child made in the image of God...
Know your worth...smile...seek God's strength daily and enjoy the journey.

Some days you make mistakes...other days all goes well. When you make a mistake, forgive yourself, learn and move on. Rise up every time you fall...you have the strength...you're a woman. :)

Pray a lot...read a lot...may the Lord sharpen your gift of discernment - yup! every woman has that. Listen to your inner voice. "Be very careful then, how you live - not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish but understand what the Lord's will is." - Eph. 5:15-17
