We as moms need to stop feeling like Failures!

I want to take a minute and talk about us as moms feeling like failures. We all have been there and have thought that, but now more than ever, we are all questioning how we are raising our kids, while working from home, home schooling, and keeping up with the house and just everyday life things. The thing is, right now we are just surviving, and that is OK. There is no need to feel like you need to do any more than that. That is enough.

During the holidays when you are not expecting anyone, and the panic starts.

Oh no!! We have all been there before. This year may just look a little bit different. You hear a knock at your door. You are not expecting anyone, and the panic starts.
