Just One Day

February 28, 2019 in Modern Motherhood - No Comments

We had a rough night last night. 
We are in the middle of a stressful project at work. 
Callie was extremely tired. Like tired tired crying over not being able to have a banana tired 🤦🏼‍♀️
It took us two hours to do homework. 
TWO HOURS. 
James worked a 16 hour day and came home to cereal for dinner and his wife crying on the couch. 
The beauty of motherhood is this was just one day. 
A good mama has good days and bad days. 
Days where she is super mom and days where her biggest accomplishment is keeping everyone alive. 
Days where she is on top of all the things and days where she is literally running around like a crazy person. 
The amazing thing is….all of those days are woven together. Sprinkled with grace, love, strength, and forgiveness.
And out of them comes a perfectly imperfect Mama. 
And a child who knows they are LOVED.

For the women blooming in unexpected places…..

For the women blooming in unexpected places…..

Hi Y'all

Hi, I’m Jaime — writer, mother, storyteller, and the heart behind The Wildflower Edit. For nearly a decade, I wrote online as The Princess and the Prosthetic, sharing my daughter’s journey with disability and the lessons our family learned along the way. It was a beautiful season — full of advocacy, connection, and community — but as my daughter grew older, I felt a shift. She deserved more autonomy. More privacy. More room to decide how she shows up in the world. And I realized something else: My own story was expanding too. Motherhood was still here. Disability was still here. But so were grief, healing, womanhood, nervous system care, feminine energy, homemaking, identity, softness… the fuller, deeper pieces of life that were ready to be spoken aloud. Whether you come for the cozy routines, the motherhood reflections, the disability advocacy, or the soft life inspiration — thank you for choosing to share this space with me. Pour a warm drink. Settle in. Let’s grow a life that feels like you again.

Jaime
