You're Doing Great!

As working Moms and Dads there are days where we ask ourselves if we are enough. 👇

Full time employment and keeping a healthy balance of family life can be tricky for most parents. The pressure often felt meeting the needs of our employers, managing our household, maintaining some semblance of a social life and spending quality time with our children is rewarding, but at times seems endless and can be overwhelming.

Of course, there are times we miss things as parents. There will be the occasional game or meet not attended because of a work deadline. We may not realize that a school project is due the next day. There are the nights that turn into having cereal for dinner, or like me- being late for just about every Girl Scout meeting. It will happen and there is zero reason to beat ourselves up about it.

Life as a working parent is a daunting task and none of us are perfect Moms and Dads. The point is to be there, to try our best and let our children know they are important and loved. The moment you see your child’s face light up as you walk in the door and they tell you they love you, shows you are in fact freakin’ enough…more than enough. As a matter of fact, I want you to know that you’re doing great!
