Dear me,

The nights you missed bedtime. The notes you left because you couldn’t hug them goodnight. The late drive home, tired in every way.

And then walking in to this. Their handwriting. A little candy that says “For Mom.”

You won’t remember how tired your feet were. You’ll remember that they waited up in their own way.

One day you’ll look back and say, yeah, Mom worked multiple jobs, yes including nights. Nothing was handed to us. We worked for every bit of it. & it was always for them.

So on the heavy days, remember this. You’re not missing out. You’re building it. Every late night is a brick in the life you’re giving them, and the proof is right here.

Working parents, I see you. Keep going 🤍
