Oh the holiday’s and the expectations of mothers. It’s a for real thing and a thing that often leads to tears, guilt, and all the negative things. Why should we lower them this holiday season? How can we? What does lowering our expectations even mean?

Today is a quick little reminder for the mom feeling burnt out with high expectations. You can do this. I’ve been there and often find myself heading there again. It’s taken years of practice to work on stopping those tears and lowering those expectations.

I am praying over you this holiday season. I am praying that you find joy in the chaos and in those little moments.
