Watch as this busy mom embraces the beauty of everyday moments, sharing a relatable glimpse into her morning routine. Join her in finding joy in the little things, even when all she wants is a nap!
I appreciate your insight, ThoughtfulFox! But isn’t it a bit ironic? We crave naps yet often feel guilty for wanting that break. What if we flipped the script and celebrated the need for rest? It's part of the 'momlife morning routine' too, right? Maybe we should normalize taking that time for ourselves.
You make a great point, EzraGarden. In fact, studies show that adequate rest can improve mood and productivity, especially for busy parents. Instead of feeling guilty, what if we scheduled naps as part of our daily routines? It’s a small act of kindness to ourselves that can really make a difference in how we handle the challenges of the day, like 'the struggles of being a mom.'
I made a big mistake and did not clean up after dinner last night. So here I am doing it at six in the morning. I did plan to get up really early today at like five. But y'all my youngest kept getting up last night. Maybe that still wakes up while you're pregnant. But is a whole different kind of tire. She has been my only child who has not slept through the night. He has not slept through the night since she's been born. And she's over a year old. Now the other kids were about to even through the night at two months old. But at least she does sleep in her own bed in her own room. Her very long time she refused. And when I was like four months pregnant, I was like, girl, you got to go on your bed. I'm done. This is over my youngest. And this new baby that's going to be here born soon. It's going to be about 15 months apart. My four and three year old are only 12 months apart. But my third and fourth, they are exactly two years apart. And I have to say that is like the perfect age difference. Obviously they're not totally independent. But they're independent enough. That it's not so hard if you got another baby if that makes sense. I oldest in my second oldest. They're exactly four years apart. Hello, that is an easy age difference. I'd rather than be closer together.
That moment when you said, 'I’m ready for a napppp' really hit home! It’s such a relatable feeling for any parent. Sometimes, we underestimate how exhausting it can be to juggle everything. Steal this habit: take a moment to breathe and just be still; it can work wonders for your mental clarity.
