Being a full-time working mom, business owner, and now a third-grade teacher, I often find myself wondering if I’m doing enough. I recently accepted a third-grade teaching position, and while I’m so excited for this new chapter, I also find myself asking: Am I giving enough to my marriage, to God, to the business I’ve poured my blood sweat and tears into, and most importantly to my boys? Am I gone too much? Is the house clean enough? Did I remember everything on my never-ending to-do list? Am I balancing it all the way I should be?
Some days, the weight of trying to be everything for everyone feels overwhelming. I put so much pressure on myself to keep up, show up, and make sure everyone feels loved and taken care of.
But then I walk into moments like this, and I’m reminded of why I keep going. Why I work so hard, why I chase these dreams, and why I keep pushing forward, even on the hardest days.
It’s all for them. For the life we’re building, the memories we’re making, and the little moments that make all the hustle worth it.
Maybe I’ll never have it all perfectly balanced. Maybe the house won’t always be spotless, and maybe my to-do list will never be completely checked off. But I hope my family always knows that, through it all, they are my why. ❤️
