We may have 'maternal' instincts but that doesn't make raising children any easier. Ask any parent and they will tell you that raising kids is a wild ride filled with ups and downs. The highs are those amazing moments of happiness and pride when you witness your child taking their first steps or giggling uncontrollably. Your heart becomes overwhelmed with unconditional joy as you watch them grow up, learn new things, and become their own person.
The lows, however, now that's the tough part; sleepless nights when they're babies, tantrums when they become toddlers, and our favorite stage yet: the teenage rebel. Raising kids is hard sometimes, constantly worrying for their safety, future, and well-being. Trying to balance your own needs with being a parent may just be one of the most difficult things on this planet. But hey, we live and we learn.
Raising kids is not easy, but no one said it would be. The tough parts make you grow and the good parts make the tough parts all worthwhile.
