Crazymaking

some might call it a blessing, others might call it something else...but being a wife and mother who is also a therapist can be crazymaking at times. i find myself wanting to be the perfect mom, but have to remind myself to just be "good enough". i am always analyzing everything...EVERYTHING...and it can get really annoying at times, particularly for my husband... but for the most part, i think what i have learned as a therapist is a huge help to me as a mother. i love what i do as a mom and a therapist, and am thankful to have a job that allows me to be home with my child during the day. but i also have to remember that i am simply that, a mom and wife who happens to be a therapist. i SO don't have it all together...and that is SO okay.

  1. It IS so OK! Mamas are hard on ourselves enough as it is. I'm learning to cut myself slack. And that's hard for me.
