The quiet mouse

Something clicked in me when I had kids. Something fired up in my soul. I feel a fierceness that I can’t explain. A love that is totally different than before I had kids.

I don’t take crap thrown at me anymore. I don’t do bullies and I’m learning how to stand up for myself. I’m learning how to stop myself from crawling back into the safe spots. I’m learning how to stand up for myself.

But I still get stressed out. Sometimes I forget things when I’m stressed out. Today especially. But tomorrow is so much better. I can’t wait to see what it brings me.
