You Are Not Alone

Motherhood Is An Upgrade

by Tenilleupdated on October 4, 2019September 6, 2019Leave a Comment on Motherhood Is An Upgrade

It’s not a loss of who you were, but an addition. Before I became a mom, I always thought that becoming a mother meant I would have to change who I am to fit that identity. I thought I would have to be okay with giving up a lot of what made me myself. I …
