I'm here to help light up the darkness, inspire, and help other mums feel seen and less alone through my musings on life, motherhood, and mental health, intertwined with my faith and grief. This is a space for REAL motherhood - the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly. Here, I promise to be open, vulnerable, and honest.
Here, you are seen, and you are heard.
In just a few days, school will be starting again. I won’t lie, I’ve been waiting for this, but as we’ve gotten closer to the date, rather than excitement and relief, I’ve felt anxiety and worry. I know a lot of you may be feeling this way as well, and that’s why this blog post isn't going to be your typical “Back to School” post on prepping and settling your kids.
It’s not easy parenting a neurodivergent kid, but I think one of the most difficult things about it is the stress and worry over how others may perceive and treat them. We might not be able to control that, but what we can do is work on building their confidence, self-esteem, and resilience, so they aren’t so easily crushed by the world.
My oldest son turns 6 this week, so I’ve decided to write something in his honour in the hopes that it will spread a bit more awareness, kindness, and acceptance towards all neurodivergent kids.
