I never wanted to be a mom.

I never thought about having a family, or even growing old. When I did have moments where I envisioned my future it was always Samantha from SATC, but make it fat. So much of my life was spent in survival mode, and being a young, single mom wasn’t my first, second or even third choice.

Becoming a mom at 20 was a wild ride 😵‍💫 I loved my oldest, provided for him, but emotionally showing up was a struggle. How do you care for a literal human being when you don’t know how to care for yourself? By the time Bowie came along, I felt more confident as a parent, and in who I was. Healing, age, privilege and to be honest- cannabis, has helped me be a better mom to both my boys. Forgiving myself for mistakes I wouldn’t have made if I knew better was freeing as well.

My children live in a home where we keep no secrets, they know about consent, body autonomy, protecting Black and trans folks, and that nothing is off limits to talk about. When they look back at their childhoods, I hope they understand I did my best, and that I’m actually way cooler than they realized. 🥸

I never wanted to be a mom, but I’m so glad I’m one ❤️ and equally as glad that I have two amazing moms! 😭

Whatever kinda mom you are, even if you are reparenting your own damn self, I’m proud of you. If you’re mourning today, I love you. Today is such a mixed bag for so many and I hope you were able to be kind to yourself whatever it looks like for you. #mothersday #latergram #forgiveness #healing
