No one talks about how heavy it is to be a mom today

 No one talks about how heavy it is to be a mom today.

We’re raising babies like we don’t have jobs.
Working like we don’t have babies.
Doing it all on our own, without the village we were promised.

There’s no pause button.
No one to tag in.
No space to fall apart.

It’s beautiful, yes. But it’s also exhausting.
It’s a love that fills every part of you while stretching you past your limit.

And even though your body aches and your mind feels tired,
You still show up.
You still give.
You still do it all.

If no one’s told you lately, I see you.
You’re doing an impossible job so well.
And you deserve so much more support than you’ve been given.
