Motherhood is a journey filled with extreme highs and unpredictable lows. As a 45-year-old mom of two delightful daughters aged 9 and 5, I’ve experienced every facet of this beautiful chaos. From the sweet moments of laughter to the tireless nights of worrying, being a mom is both rewarding and challenging. In the whirlwind of parenting, it’s easy to get lost, but remember, every mom faces similar trials.
