PlaytexBaby encourages moms to be genuine and not “picture perfect” because real life isn’t. As the next few months start to unfold, I fear that I won’t be “mom” enough for the two boys that are already earth side. Though fear is normal in motherhood, I know that I won’t be given what I can’t handle.

I know I’m a good mom but why can’t I be a great mom? You know, the moms that don’t yell or get frustrated with their children. A mom that loves to stay at home, a mom that loves to bake, cook, and clean. Will I ever be enough?

Or is that all an illusion? Somehow, I have been made to feel that I need to achieve the great mom status. Is there even a mom like that out there? It seems like I’m the only one in this stirring pot that admits that I’m not the perfect mom and I never will be.

Am I Enough Mom for Jayden?

The boy who loves so hard that I can’t even begin to explain how he came to be? He is mine.

Am I Enough Mom for Abel?

The boy who loves to take risks and wants to fly over the moon? He is mine.

Am I Enough Mom for This New Baby?

The baby who will be protected by all and will probably be the last baby my body ever carries? He or she is mine.

    I love these pictures of you with your boys. I think that we all have those thoughts from time to time, but it’s important to remember that really, no one is perfect and we are the mother that our Heavenly Father picked for our children, and that’s really all that matters.

  16. These pictures are adorable, and in seeing your work, the time you spend and love you give to your children absolutely make you a great mom!

  17. Steffanie Wing

    Wow I love this post! I recently adopted Enough as my word for the year. I have enough, I do enough, I AM enough!!! All of us mamas are just doing the best we can! You are enough!!

  18. Loved this post and the pictures are all so cute! I don’t think there is any “perfect” mom. We all have things that we do great, or not so great at. What matters is that we try our best and love and care for our children the best we can.

  19. Virjinia Harp

    What a sweet post. No mom is perfect but it definitely seems like you love all your babes with all your heart and that’s what matters!

    I want to win pink because my sister is having her third child, a daughter, in May. She thought she was done so she doesnt have everything like you’d think.
