You can be a good mom

 You can be a good mom and still feel completely overwhelmed.

You can play with your kids all day and still feel like you're not doing enough.
You can laugh and smile and still carry the weight of anxiety.
You can love your family more than anything and still need a break.

Motherhood doesn't erase your struggles. It just makes you better at hiding them.
But that doesn’t mean you have to.

Be gentle with yourself.
You are carrying so much, and still showing up with love.
That is strength. That is motherhood.

You’re doing better than you think.
