I'm not a perfect mom by far. This is one of my biggest regrets. With my first child I was still young and unhappy in my relationship. Yes I took care of him. Yes I worked my ass off. But at the same time I remember one too many drunk nights trying to drown my demons when I should have been taking care of him. So for all the moms who have struggled and feel guilty: its better late than never. I just finally got myself straight about 2 years ago. I still battle depression and my past demons but I don't feel the urge to drown them in booze. Happiness is the best medicine.

I know how you feel. I didn't get my shit together and grow up until last year. And that's because I got a bad reality check having my kids taken away. Its amazing how far you have come and you should he proud of yourself. I'm proud of you! Growing up is hard. Being a parent is harder. Lots of women like to act like they grew up instantly but the truth is most of us take time to adjust to motherhood. It has its ups and downs but the best part of it all is our children's ever lasting love. 💖
