The pain I feel today reminds me that there is still work to do.

The sadness I feel today reminds me that this fight is far from over.

I’m being vulnerable, open and honest so that someone else doesn’t have to do it alone.

I realize by few comments, there is still a fight worth fighting for.

What is unfortunate is that it’s other women who are still throwing stones.

Judging what we feed our children, how much screen time is deemed appropriate to them, how we should dress or not dress and who we should love…

When I shared a video about my husband and I, few complain. That’s motherhood they say.

Does it still hold true if it was a video of me and another woman? That’s not motherhood they say.

They were beside themselves when all I did was wear a rainbow romper.

I’m reminded today, that by the pain I feel, this is why I must keep going.

So someday our children won’t have to fight this same fight.

So they are relieved from society’s expectations of who they are supposed to be.

Judgement is taught and yet so is acceptance.

As mothers we get to choose which one our children will spew.

and to those who still can’t see how worldly topics having anything to do with motherhood,

We are the ones who kiss the future goodnight, every night.

We hold them in our arms and promise everything is going to be alright.

That if you can’t see why I do what I’m doing what I’m doing, then maybe you are part of the problem.

Change can’t and won’t progress with silence.

We can be many things AND a mother.

We are talented like that.
