Losing yourself in motherhood.
I don't think people talk about losing yourself in motherhood as much as they should. There is a part of you that is never the same after you become a mom. Some days, I miss my old self doing something as small as having a cup of coffee on a quite morning without having a care in the world. Don't get me wrong, I'm not ungrateful for what I am blessed with, but it doesn't mean that I don't miss the old me. They say it gets better, kids become more independent, the routine settles, but do you really go back to being who you were before embarking on this journey? I don't think so. But for now, let's find the joy in the life that we are blessed with. Who knows, maybe this will be the new normal. The new me? I guess so. :)
