This video is to lift my spirits and keep me going through 2 more days as I keep it somewhere in the back of my mind. I absolutely love being a mom. In no way am I complaining. I'm just feeling emotionally, physically, and mentally drained from lack of sleep and having no one talk to during the day. Natalia is on a new sleeping schedule (more on that later), which means she goes to bed earlier and gets up earlier. It's the getting up earlier that is taking me some getting used to. Combine that with Josh's schedule, barely seeing him, and feeling like I've been running on an empty tank for a few weeks, it's affecting me more than I thought it would. I went to lds.org and typed in 'motherhood' for some words of encouragement and this movie came up. I have to admit I cried when I saw it. It gave me the validation for the long days, baby's tears, and trying my best to be the best mother/homemaker, but feeling inadequate sometimes. Thank you Elder Holland for this talk. I needed to know that someone knows how I feel and that my role as mother is heralded. Thanks.
I love being a mother more and more. Words can't express how much I love it and I am so grateful for my life. I feel so blessed. I am the luckiest girl in the world.
