Pinterest Doesn't Make You Perfect!


I may not be the prettiest. Or the skinniest. Or the funniest. Or the richest. Or the most creative. Or the....

Well, you get the point. I may not be all of those things. I'm probably not a whole lot more. But I am still a Mom. And I am the best Mom for my babies. Because I am the best me that I can be. 


I don't plan meals weeks in advance. But my kids eat healthy everyday.
First time self-feeding!













I don't organize neat little crafts. But my kids' artwork still covers my fridge.
The Toddler's portrait of Me. Or my uterus. Still unsure..










 I don't go to Mommy and Me classes. But my kids aren't (completely) socially awkward.
Every grown woman's nightmare












 We don't have the most up to date gadgets. But my kids remain entertained.
Fairy Story Corner
Coolest Chick in Town













We don't have a lot of money. Or time. Or luxuries. But we do have all the love in the world...

Daddy Snuggles















Ya wanna know a secret? I didn't learn that on Pinterest.

  1. Pinterest overwhelms me and stresses me out. Also, it leaves with the case of the "I wants." In order to be content with what I have, I've had to stop going on Pinterest.

  4. I love it. What you also have is great perspective. It's easy to look like the perfect mother on the outside, as they do on Pinterest. But it's the little things that really matter, like giving lots of kisses and saying I love you.
