#ThisIsMotherhood

May 27, 2016 By Lauren

“Watching from the sidelines, longing to play. Knowing that this little one suffers from the same social anxiety as his Mama did breaks my heart. It’s taken me years to overcome and I’m still not fully there. I struggled secretly for so long, never displaying those anxieties to protect him. The difference is he’ll always have someone to identify with; someone to hold his hand through it & gently say, ‘It will be totally worth it…I promise.’ This is motherhood.” -Rebecca T.
