5 Signs You Are A Stronger Mom Than You Think
- You constantly question if you are doing a good job and the right thing.
- Someone once told me that the fact I even question if I am doing a good job shows that I care enough to be the best mom I can be. Questioning and analyzing your parenting shows just how strong you are because it says that you are willing and eager to make any changes to be the best mom you can be.
- Your children openly and willingly talk to you.
- Communication is the most important thing in your relationship with your children. Whether your child is an open book or takes a little more time to express themselves, if your little ones feel comfortable talking to you, then you are exactly what your child needs.
- You are always working on ways you can do better.
- If you are using your very limited free time to look for better recipes your family will like, cleaning or organizing hacks to make your home run more efficiently, activities to keep your kids happy or just information on how to improve your parenting, then you are a stronger mom than you think.
- Your kids come to you when they need you most.
- Okay, so you don’t jump at the opportunity to play chef with Play-Doh or build that fort they begged you to build outside. But are you instantly there for them when they feel scared, are sick or lonely? Yes you are and that makes you a very strong mom.
- They feel unconditionally loved
- Remember, actions speak louder than words. And it can feel like you never do enough for your kids. However, no matter how many impatient moments you’ve had, or how much you feel like you are failing, your kids know that they are loved by all the little tiny things you do all day to keep them healthy, happy and ALIVE!
