The last 20 months have not been easy. Bringing two babies into this world at one time is emotionally draining, but equally amazing. However, this past weekend things have started to really come together. To be honest with you there were many moments that I never thought this day would come.
Over the past 20 months there have been many tears, both from McKenzie and McKayla as well as myself. One thing I have learned since having our twins is that life is not supposed to be easy. Life is supposed to test us and change us. Life is supposed to help bring out the best in each and every one of us. Since, becoming a mom to four daughters I have truly become my best self. Yes, I have had rough moments, days, months, years, but all of those moments have made me who I am today and I am the best me thus far. Each and everyday my girls show me what is important in life. They have taught me how to love with all my heart. They have taught me the little things and just that little things.
So, if you are going through a rough phase right now, know this too shall pass. I know at times you feel as though you will never get out of this difficult phase in your life, but keep going. Keep getting up each and every day and choosing happiness. Try to keep your head up and a smile on your face. I know it may be extremely hard to keep trucking along, but trust me there is an light at the end of your struggles. Life is going to turn around. You are doing an amazing job.
Never forget you have a purpose, God doesn’t make mistakes.
Thank you for this! It’s a great reminder I needed today! Hugs
something I needed to hear today! Thanks for reminding us that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Thank you so much for this! It is much needed, I totally had one of those days yesterday where I just felt so defeated and it was rough. You are so right, life isn’t supposed to be easy, it’s a challenge that it totally worth all the stress, worry and chaos. We’ve been having issues with bedtime lately, (trying to get two littles down, both at a decent hour) and last night it didn’t work and I was so upset, like it was all our fault for not being better, but now that I’ve reflected on it (and had a couple hours of sleep), I realize, it is not as big of a deal as I was making it. I was mostly stressed due to other things going on and that I began to dwell on this particular thing. Thank you thank you again! <3 (p.s. Are you on Instagram?
