It’s okay if you need “help being a mom.”
It’s okay,
if you call your mom, a friend, any-trusted-someone for their opinions on big decisions and small ones when it comes to your kids because they all seem important,
if you hire a babysitter so you and your partner can finally get a night out or a professional cleaner once a week, so you aren't constantly cleaning up the mess,
if you ask your partner to take over bedtime duties most nights because you’ve had enough,
if you need to buy premade dinners or rely on school lunches.
No matter how hard we try to do it all, the weight of all things — the pressure parenting puts on your entire being and being only one person with so many hats—is impossible to do totally alone.
So, we should never feel wrong for asking for help in the first place.
It doesn’t matter if we’re a working mom, a stay-at-home mom, or a combination,
or whether we have one child or five.
