❤️no perfect parents, no perfect kids, but a whole lot of perfect moments along the way.❤️
. . I’ve found myself wishing that if only everything could look & be as perfect as these posed photos are, then everything would be okay. . . And that has led me to do some deep soul searching as to why I keep feeling that way. The comparison game is so easy to fall into, from the scrolling and constant posts of perfect photos. As I really dug deep into why I was feeling like this, I came to the following conclusions. Perfect would be boring, 24/7 perfect would be agonizing & so difficult. . . And while not everything is as perfect as this photo may look, I’m choosing to embrace and be grateful for what we are & all we have instead . I’m grateful for the early mornings, the craziness of drops off to school, and the silliness of after school picks. . . I’m grateful for the constant questions of why, for the laughter that carries through our house, and the sink full of dishes at the end of the night. I’m grateful for the piles of laundry, and for the love that that flows through our home. . . You both keep me on my toes, you both know exactly what buttons to push and when to push them, and somedays I swear you both do it just for fun. . . . But you both also show me the most love, and forgiveness. You give the best hugs and kisses and have taught me how to gracefully handle any situations life throws our way. . . It isn’t perfect, it never has been, but I’m choosing today, to be grateful nonetheless ❤️ what are you choosing to do today? . . 📷 @paulthompson23 👚 @bam_dezigns #familymatters #joyoverperfection #choosinggratefulness #momlifethroughinstagram #noteverythingyouseeisreal #realmomlife #workfromhomemom #choosingcalmoverchaos
