@heyitselizabethrose: Healing while parenting is different. You don’t get to disappear for a while and come back when you’re whole. You heal in the middle of making dinner, school drop-offs, bedtime routines, work, laundry, birthdays, and all the little moments your kids still need you for. And I know I didn’t do all of it perfectly. There are things I wish I could go back and do differently. But I also know how hard I fought to make sure my pain didn’t become theirs. So I’ve learned to give myself a lot more grace. I’m proud of the woman I became, but I’m especially proud of the mom I managed to be while I was becoming her. 🤍 #HealingJourney #singlemom #singlemomlife #lifeafterabuse #abuse
