Advocating for our MAMA health
My boy. ❤️
I will advocate and fight for you into all of eternity. I will advocate and fight for your sisters and brother. And for our entire family. Always.
But I have to be real...
My promise to you is that I will advocate and fight for myself - FIRST. It can't be the other way around.
A powerful lesson I'm learning as a mother.
We have to learn to advocate in big, deep ways for our kids.
But even more so...
We have to learn to advocate in big deep ways for ourselves.
I will fight forever for my family.
But first - I will fight for myself.
Because I don't have the will, the patience, the grace or the strength without fighting for ME first.
The message...
Life is FULL, Mama.
But don't replace "so full" with "too busy."
Make the time.
ADVOCATE for yourself.
Speak up about what you need.
Bring it to the light.
And remember...
HE is with you every step of the way.
Your needs absolutely matter, mama...just as much as everyone and everything else. 🙏
