Birthday Moments #nomamipikinleftbehind

This is how it all started. With complete submission to him that has taken me this far.

This is a #nomamipikinleftbehind post.

I actually got the chance to celebrate my birthday for two whole weeks. I want other mothers to know that it is ok to celebrate you. There is nothing wrong with giving yourself a treat. We work extremely hard all year round so why not?

There's life left in me. Post stretchmarks, back pain, painful labor, weight gain, life changing labor pain, financial changes,  and a lot more. There's life left in me after going through this 3 times, my children are the number one reason i choose to live a FULL LIFE everyday. I refuse to be a sad mother, we have a lot of sad mothers because they have forgotten how to live a full life post having kids. Live a full life if not for you, for the sake of your kids. A mother who doesn't get a chance to recharge is not living a full life. Your children need their full time parent.

(FYI.. if you are getting help from family to raise your kids, DO NOT FEEL GUILTY! You most likely need the help to get recharged and that's the best choice for you and your children at this time and yes its  just OK)

Love you all.
