L Is For The Way You Look At Me 🤍 Today on the blog, I’m sharing a very personal piece about my first Valentine’s Day as a single mama. My feelings about it, my plans, and my hopes for the future. #HappilyEvaAfter #MomLife #HonestMotherhood #NewBeginnings 📷: @mymotherhoodstory

I had a moment today when my kids rounded the corner to the kitchen after school (I was in the middle of a blog shoot) and when I first laid eyes on them they looked so big and old for a second that actual tears sprung to my eyes immediately- before my thoughts were able to catch up to them. I’m so scared of the time going too quickly, or of not being present enough to cherish it the way that they (and I) deserve. I’m so scared of missing it when I’m busy worrying about the wrong things. We have a ritual at bedtime the last few weeks where we each put one hand on my belly and say together “The four best friends anyone ever had!” 😂 It makes me laugh every time, but on days like today it feels bittersweet. I know I’m going to miss the days when they rush home and can’t wait to tell me every single thing that happened at school, wrap their arms around my neck and let me hold them on my lap, one on each leg. I’m not a perfect Mom. I lose my temper at times, I take the shortcut some days, I get frustrated sometimes when I shouldn’t. And I beat myself up about it like anybody trying to do their best. But holy shit these kids have my whole heart and then some. I’m so much better as a person because of the way they let me love them, and I will always be so grateful to them for opening my heart like this. I hope one day they can really understand that. ❤️#HappilyEvaAfter #MomLife #MarloweAndMajor 📷: @mymotherhoodstory

Alone doesn’t have to mean lonely 😉💖👊🏼 It’s going to be my first single Valentine’s Day in a decade 🙃, but I love Love more than ever and I had a BLAST rounding up a sick Vday gift guide with the best things in it! There are some discounted luxury items, some gifts to get your Galentines, and even items to buy for yourself. Oh, and a donut bouquet. Because hello, priorities. 😆 #HappilyEvaAfter #GiftGuide #HEAatHome #ValentinesDay #Love 📷: @juliadags
