at home
women put themselves on the back burner, sacrificing their everyday needs because they see little ones that need everyday. I know that you know that you want more for your babes. I know that you know that every decision we make, we're modeling life being lived out loud for our children. Let's show them how to honor ourselves and in doing so, our cup runneth over in ways that are unimaginable. Let them drink from a cup that overflows and is saturated with goodness and patience and kindness and gentleness; a cup that is dripping with joy. I curated this list specifically for you, the woman at home who is a little bit lost in how to take care of herself; the woman who doesn't mind the dirt on hands and toads in pockets; the woman who feels nature comes naturally but not necessarily charcoal masks (even so, do it you won't regret it). I am you. You are loved, Mama! Your fellow Mama Bear, Alina
