“Mommy, I’m the luckiest girl in the world because I got to be the only big girl at your meetings.” 🥹💕
Meanwhile, I was feeling guilty.
Yesterday, motherhood and service collided. We went from basketball practice to the
@rhopsiomega Connection & Social Action Retreat, where I shared
@charmeckschools updates, to listening to community voices
@publicschoolstrong @creed_nc session with basketball, lunch, the library, shopping and plenty of snacks in between.
I kept wondering if I was giving her enough of me.
She thought she was getting the best of me.
Whew. 😭
Sometimes what feels like mom guilt to us feels like a front-row seat to them.
Maybe our children don’t always need us to perfectly separate our worlds. Maybe there’s something beautiful about letting them see the whole thing.
I thought she was tagging along with me.
Turns out, she thought she had the best seat in the house.
