Life is not perfect.
Life is messy, complicated, perfectly imperfect. And that’s what makes it beautiful.
Callie doesn’t need a perfect mom.
She needs to see me struggle….so she can see me overcome.
She needs to see me fail….so she can see me improve.
She needs to see me start over…..so she learns there’s no expiration date on your goals.
She needs to see me told no…..so she can see me try again. And again. And again.
She needs to see me be scared….so she can see me be brave.
She needs to see me chasing my dreams…..so she can reach hers.
She needs to see me embracing my imperfections….so she can do the same for hers.
She needs to see me upset….so she can learn to work through her emotions.
She needs to see me less concerned with appearances…..so she learns it’s how a person acts that’s important.
She needs to see me do what I’m good at….so she learns there are no limitations to what she can do.
She needs to see me fall…..so she can see me rise……
