The Beauty of Motherhood

I have had so many women pour into my life over the years, I can't imagine who I'd be without them. Strong, beautiful, motherly figures listening and loving through the good stuff, the bad stuff, the funny stuff, the hard stuff... those are the people who have touched my life the most.  I strive to be the best mother I can be to my two girls, and while I fall short time and time again, I feel like I still get an "A" every single day for simply trying my best.  If you are a mother, you do, too.  I try to always be upfront with my girls.  I make mistakes.  I'm wrong sometimes (kind of a lot).  I'm not striving for perfection here, simply love.  I love them with my whole heart... even more than I ever thought possible.  I hope you all had a beautiful Mother's Day, busting at the seams with love.  I know holidays can be tricky sometimes when a loved one is missing, but I truly hope that wherever you are in life, you have people around that pour into you, and you into them.  xo.

  2. How adorable. Still, becomming a mother seems so distant.

  3. Dear Katie, you've brought tears to my eyes with these beautiful words! Although I'm pretty sure you receive comments like this every day, I still can't help but hope you know how much your blog has been an inspiration to me. I'm truly touched by the way you portrait your family and by the way you write about them. I certainly don't know the real you, but everything you post here reassures me there are still families out there built with love. I hope you'll always be this loving towards them and hope you always receive such a strong love back. Thank you for this post.

  10. We all fail sometimes but that just makes us humans. You look like a wonderful mother and I can almost feel the love you have for those girls through internet - that's something.
