‘What does motherhood mean to you?’

motherhood means challenging and changing yourself to give another little human being a kick-ass life :)

‘How has motherhood changed you?’

patience. I’ve absolutely learned patience.

‘What is the hardest part of being a mama?’

finding a balance between losing yourself in motherhood and self. also maybe lack of sleep.

‘What is the biggest joy that your children have given you?’

It’s just amazing how many positive things a kid can bring into your world. From big hugs, messy kisses, to watching them grow into a cool and caring human being. Something as simple as a stick figure drawing changes into the most valuable gift you’ve ever received.

‘What one piece of advice would you give a first time mama?

don’t sweat it. really. yes, you’ll lose sleep, breast-feeding can be challenging, baby will whine, but at the end of it all, life and motherhood isn’t as hard as it feels. Do your best and your kid is going to love you regardless. Also, a happy mom means a happy kid.
