A Little Transparency ❤️

Y’all, I found this on my bed tonight and it hit me HARD. 🥺

I’ve been my daughter’s sole provider and constant, and I fight daily to break cycles from my childhood. This week has tested me in EVERY category and …chiiiile, my finances are tighter than my waist trainer. 😂

My daughter (Adriana) saw that I was a little down today. I feel like I am drowning some days. I had an unexpected bill hit for my daughter’s dental work and I have been trying to figure out my finances. As I get ready to lay down just now, I see this on the bed.

Seeing this warmed my heart, but it also made me wonder if my struggle is showing more than I realize.

I want her prepared for life, but I never want her carrying adult weight. I’ll drown so she can swim, but I don’t want her jumping in trying to save me.

I’m learning motherhood as I go without having had the best example myself. Parents, how do you balance being transparent with your kids while still protecting their childhood? Drop some wisdom on me. ❤️
