YOU’RE SO BRAVE

FIND MY BEE AND MAE SHIRT HERE 

You’re so brave for doing this!

“You’re so brave for leaving the house with three kids!” ⁣
“You’re so brave for breastfeeding!” ⁣
“You’re so brave for showing your stretch marks!” ⁣


The truth is I’m not brave. ⁣

I’m not brave for showing skin. ⁣
I’m not brave for showing stretch marks. ⁣
I’m not brave for not dropping pounds immediately. ⁣
I’m not brave for showing my life. ⁣
I’m not brave for having three kids. ⁣
I’m not brave for running errands with three kids. ⁣

I’m tired. ⁣

I’m tired of not feeling worthy. ⁣
I’m tired of being judged based on my size or my face or my hair or my clothes. ⁣
I’m tired of being judged for a messy playroom or a kid having a tantrum. ⁣

I’m fucking tired. ⁣

My life is a normal life. My body is a normal body. My children are normal children. ⁣

So no, I’m not brave. I’m just tired of justifying my normal, every day life. I’m tired of having to work to normalize a typical every day. ⁣

Really, really tired. ⁣
