What if?

I often wonder what kind of mum I would've been if I had my boys in my 20's instead of early 40's.

I guess everyone's destiny is different and for me it happened when it was meant to, but I still often ask myself, what if....

• Would I have been more energetic?

• Would I have been more devoted to them rather than wanting to balance a full time job as well as being a mum?

My mum would have still been around so they would've had a maternal grandma. How would that have shaped them as opposed to never having met her now. Not knowing or ever experiencing the love of their mum's mum...

Motherhood in general is a wild journey, the emotions, the constant questioning on whether I'm doing enough. The non stop overwhelm of being needed and over stimulation, but I wouldn't change a single thing.

All these thoughts are quickly settled with the realization that I am doing exactly what I should be, and am exactly where I'm meant to be in this season of my life.

I only have two boys so unsure if having two girls would be any different.. but boy oh boy, my boys know how to keep me on my toes!! :)

A working mum of two boys! The juggle is REAL! I always have my hands and mind full, have been sleep deprived for about 8 years and at this point not sure I'll ever get my sanity back!
