Once we become mothers we often have so many dreams revolving around our children. We dream they will grow up become doctors, astronauts, or in my case just enough to pee on the potty. Often times our lives and emotions become so wrapped up in our children we lose sight of ourselves. We forget that before we became mothers we were women with our own hopes and dreams.
This happened to me when I became a stay-at-home mom. I love my job as a mom and wouldn’t trade these precious years for anything, but I also have dreams. Moving to Europe (hopefully in the not too distance future) and traveling the world are big dreams, and I am accomplishing another as we speak. I am writing this blog and you are reading it. That is a dream being fulfilled.
Whether you are a working mom, city mom, or a stay at home mom, don’t forget to have dreams for yourself. These can be big dreams or little dreams, but the important thing is to make them happen and not let them just slip away.
