Before kids: I was sorry.
Sorry for speaking up. Sorry for setting boundaries. Sorry for protecting my energy.
After kids: I’m no longer sorry.
I’m not sorry for protecting my peace, my children, myself, and my family.
I’m not sorry for setting boundaries and actually standing by them.
I’m not sorry if protecting my child’s or my own feelings hurts your ego.
And I’m definitely not sorry for no longer tiptoeing or silencing myself just to make you feel powerful.
Motherhood changed me — and I’m proud of her. 💪❤️
