I love these mom quotes! Thanks for sharing!
These are so good! Bookmarking this so that I can come back to it on the extra rough days. Or any day for that matter!
Aww, thanks!
Thanks for sharing these inspirational and encouraging quotes. Being a mom is hard and we need encouragement too! My favorite quote that you posted is “Today think about all that you are, instead of all that you are not!” This hits home because it seems to be easier for me to focus on the negative than the positive. I feel like I’m often failing, but I need to realize that there is actually a lot that I do as a mom.
Yes, definitely one of my favorites! Yes, I think we all do that but you’re right . . . We all do soooo much and it’s not easy!!
A lot of times a quote is the first step to a mindset shift!
Yes, absolutely!
Love these. I feel better already.
Good! . . . It’s the little things, right?!?! Thanks!
