Being a mom is so hard! It's definitely a lot harder than I ever expected. Everyone always tells you beforehand how hard it will be, but I really don't think there's any way to ever know just how difficult it is until you're actually doing it.
It seems like one of the first things in life to get left behind once you have kids, is yourself. But, it doesn't need to be this way. Making time for yourself can be tough, but it's not impossible (even though it often feels this way)!
