What is Motherhood, if not an Oxymoron?

What is motherhood? Motherhood is yearning to be with your kids while you’re at work and then wishing you were somewhere else when you’re with them. Motherhood is worrying about your kids and also hoping for their future. Motherhood is when you’re daydreaming about your child’s smile instead of focusing on your current situation. Motherhood is arguing and debating with your tweenager trying to make your point. Motherhood is cuddling your preteens or babies always feeling so much love regardless of their size. Motherhood is yelling at your child and then being yelled back at!

Motherhood is an oxymoron.

We’ve all searched for the instruction booklet on how to do it right but there isn’t one. I heard something today that connected deeply with me. The Super Mama’s podcast, episode 137 “What does Motherhood Look like to you?” said that you could have amazing parents and still come out messed up.  You could have the worst parents and come out without many issues!  Why? Because there is no guide as to how not to screw up your kids. I had a pretty good childhood but I can still use some therapy. Who couldn’t? I guess that is a part of life. So whatever you do just do it with love and do it to satisfy you and your families needs not what other people tell you you should do.

 

We all feel bad after losing it and yelling at the kids, but life pushes our buttons! Way too frequently.  Don’t focus on the bad, remember there is a little bit of everything in our lives.  Nothing is perfect, but I bet you’re doing a damn great job!

 Do NOT beat yourself up about how you’re mothering!

 I want to remind you that you are amazing,  you are a great mama and you’re doing just fine. When you don’t feel like enough, read this. Instill compassion and empathy into your kids, teach them to be tough, teach them life is not fair and that we all have to face adversities and I think everything will work out. Motherhood is an oxymoron you don’t want to get lost in that hood!  You want to own that hood, show them who’s boss while showing them the necessary life skills to maneuver this thing called life.  So whatever you do, remember to always keep your MotherHood, Full of Dreams.
