Oh, @crateandkids, how we love you... 💕 #crateandbarrel #crateandkids #saturdayfun #saturdayshenanigans #saturdayshopping #myminime #mommydaughtertime #our_everyday_moments #oureverydaymoments #oureverydaylife #flashesofdelight #motherhood #childhoodeveryday #childhood #cutekidsclub #cutekidsofinstagram She’s gotten to the stage where I pull out my phone to take a photo of her, and she gives me this look that says, “Really, mom? Another photo?” But I just can’t help myself. Because, my goodness, I want to capture her essence: her energy, her enthusiasm, her light, her love, her everyday beauty, her heart that shines through her smile. Most of the time, she obliges me and I capture a photo like this. A photo that says it all. 💕 #instamom #motherhood #thatsdarling #mommylife #motherhoodunplugged #motherhoodthroughinstagram #motherhoodthroughig #letthembekids #letthembelittle #flashesofdelight #littleandbrave #cutenessoverload😍 #momlifeisthebest #myeverydaymagic #momblogger #mynameismama #momblog #mommyblog #momswithcamera #littlefierceones #honestmotherhood #candidchildhood #theeverydayportrait #memoirsofmotherhood #acupofmotherhood #ig_motherhood #oureverydaymoments #nostalgiadiaries ***Reposted from @KindredMom*** It’s such a challenge to figure out how to navigate comparison with all the subtle ways we can internalize our insecurities. Is there a mom out there who has figured out the secret to keeping hold of joy when it feels like everyone else has it all going for them when you feel like a hot mess? We would love to hear all your ideas (and may share them on our stories if you comment or DM us!) . . This week on the podcast, we talked all about our personal challenges with comparison and some of the ways we fight for joy (and all the other things we stand to lose when we are caught in the comparison trap). @emily_sue_allen @lindseycornett @sweetsound37 and special guest @thenostalgiadiaries Corey Wheeland unpack this topic with honesty and hope. . . . #kindredmom#momblog#motherhoodsimplified#momitforward#ohmamamoment#tiredmama#joyfulmamas#ig_motherhood#motherhoodrising#motherhoodunplugged#motherhoodrocks#sahmlife#wahm#ohheymama#motherhoodsimplified#motherhoodquotes#hopewriters#candidchildhood#shareyourheart#writersnetwork#christianwriter#writercommunity#writersofinstagram#parentingpodcast #imom #motherhoodalive#mompreneur #momblogger #parentingblogger Want to keep following my writing journey?

Do you see that plate? Somehow I managed to make Zoey a real breakfast today. Let’s overlook the fact that she’s eating a toaster waffle and that the bacon was pre-cooked and only took 25 seconds to heat up in the microwave. Details shmetails. Also, she ate about 5 bites. But whatever. I’m totally determined to crush life this month, one half-eaten-well-intentioned-breakfast at a time. #killingit #madeformore #novembergoals #our_everyday_moments #mynameismama #thisismotherhood #momlifebelike #momsohard #honestlymothering #candidmotherhood #womenirl #workingmomlife #motherhoodmoments #teammotherly #momminainteasy #stopdropandmom #motherhoodrising #childhoodunplugged #igmotherhood #ourcandidlife #mytinymoments #parenthoodunlocked #momtruth #honestlyparents #ohheymama #momlife #winning #nostalgiadiaries My last essay for my Kindred Mom Writer-in-Residence... I find it fitting the theme is something I struggle with on a daily basis, no matter how hard I try: comparison. It's such a dangerous trap to fall into, don't you think? Is it something you struggle with, too? If you do, perhaps a shift in perspective is all it takes. Maybe, just maybe, where you are right now and who you are right now is actually quite perfect. 💕 (Check out the story on kindredmom.com! Regrammed from @kindred_mom) ----- "I sigh, realizing I had yet again crashed alongside Zoey after reading that extra chapter of Little House on the Prairie she had insisted would be the last one. Although my intentions are good, stemming from my desire to sneak in a few extra minutes of one-on-one time with Zoey, I can’t help but find myself thinking this falling asleep habit is just one more way I keep failing at the I-have-everything-figured-out-and-I’m-achieving-everything-I’ve-ever-wanted-and-oh-by-the-way-I-do-everything-right-when-it-comes-to-motherhood kind of success I’ve always wanted. I begin to mentally scroll through a list of the ways I feel I keep falling short of that put-together picture of parenthood. It’s another terrible habit I have, falling into a trap where I compare the way my life is to the way I think it should be." — #notonlymama #joyfulmamas #thisismotherhood #momblogger #momswhoblog #nestandflourish #ontheblog #familylove #memoirsofmotherhood #mynameismama #hopewriters #thesincerestoryteller #pursuewhatislovely #graceupongrace #yourinfluence #womenintheword #dontmomalone #surprisedbymotherhood #comparisonisthethiefofjoy #writerslife #writersofig #writersofinstagram #postwithpurpose #our_everyday_moments #seekthesimplicity #cultivatewhatmatters #nostalgiadiaries
