You *Are* the Perfect Mom

 

My dear friend

 

It is true

What they say

About having a baby

 

Your life will never be the same again

 

It can be better

If you let it

 

You will make mistakes

And that is ok

We all make mistakes

 

“Perfect mom”

is not looking

Over Your shoulder

 

You are the perfect mom for your baby

 

 

Be patient

with yourself

Be willing

To apologize

Don’t be afraid

To admit you need help

We all need a little help sometimes

 

When you look

In the mirror

Don’t worry

About the body parts

That look

or feel

A little saggy

 

They are your Mother badge

Of courage

Love

And strength

 

You are so much stronger than you think

 

You will be

a WONDERFUL

Wise

Smart

Compassionate

Kind

Intuitive

Faith-filled

Strong momma for this little person

 

Books and advice on parenting philosophies

can be helpful tools

But in the end

If you put down the books

Turn off the phone

And just be still with your baby

 

You will find

A quiet

Wise

Voice

Whispering inside you

All you need to know

To care for

And love her perfectly

You already know what to do

 

Relax

 

You got this

 

You are going to be amazing

 

Welcome to motherhood
