If you follow me on the gram then you would have seen one my recent posts talking about currently solo parenting. My husband is currently out of the country, if didn’t know we live in Texas without immediate family. Over time we have made some friends along the way but, nothing like actual family. Being home with the girls, doing the day to day by myself has been quite exhausting to say the least. But, all this has also made me understand the importance of support for success in motherhood.
- Support is what fuels this unpaid job; having people that are checking in, helping to step in and carry the weight when you need a little break. Support for moms makes it easier, having people you can call on to ask for assistance will ease the burden.
- Support system is the village that carries you in motherhood; those are the people who uplift you and help in sowing into your kids. I think back to my childhood, my grandparents were active in our lives made a world of a difference especially with the extra help they were for my mom. Stepping in for carpools and just a sound board and voice of reason.
- Motherhood can be quite a lonely journey in part because of how it hits you, there is no script or grade that tells your if you are doing things right or wrong but, that’s where support system comes in to lift you. A good support system will ease off the overwhelming feeling.
No one tells you this, but the true ingredient to a successful mother and the factor that allows a mom to thrive and feel empowered in her role is support. Great support system checks on your, advises you, prays for you, but most importantly surround you with love.
