Motherhood

 Motherhood taught me how sacred peace really is.

It showed me that not everyone needs a front row seat to my life. That some things are meant to be kept close, safe, and protected.

My kids aren’t a show for others to watch.
My home isn’t open to every opinion.
My choices aren’t up for debate.

I’ve learned to share what I feel called to, with who I trust, when it feels right.

Because peace matters more than approval.
Boundaries matter more than appearances.
And my family will always come before someone else's curiosity.

I don’t owe explanations.
I don’t owe access.
And I definitely don’t owe apologies.

This is my life. My rules. My peace.
