This really touched me. As a mom to a child with a disability , I sometimes find myself wondering ‘at want cost.’ I love and adore my life but I am struggling and I know it’s having effects on my body.
I think it’s ok to mourn what could have been while simultaneously knowing that the life we’ve been given is precious - even if it’s hard. I think we often think too black and white and force ourselves into the I have to be grateful camp. Hugs Kate. You’re such a good mom to Cooper and also I’m sure it IS taking a toll. Both can be true. ❤️

Every single time I'm going through something hard AF and I push away the urge to talk to somebody about it because I don't want to be the downer or complaining all the time you post something that's exactly what I'm going through! It is too hard! 😭 it feels like the shit never ends...
Reading this newsletter part made me think about how sometimes life gives us more than we can handle. It's okay to admit when things feel overwhelming. We may not always handle it gracefully, but we keep going. It's about surviving and getting stronger, even if it doesn't always feel that way. Impressive work! 🌟

Thank you so much💙
Awww. Thx for saying that because sometimes I feel like I’m writing into the void. Sorry you’re going through a hard time. Vent away!!
