I want more hugs.
I want to be validated.
Those are the things that make children thrive, the confidence we put in them.
They feel like they can do anything.
And so motherhood means like what my parents did to me.
They were like, you could be anything.
You can do it no matter what, no matter what size I was, no matter what nationality.
They were saying, you can do it.
And I think that's what motherhood is, that even though it's hard, you got to love on these kids.
Just love them, love them, and tell them they can do anything.
Support them.
It is a balance.
And I'm not saying I'm great at it, but I think as parents, we have to stop.
And what my people know is that my son comes first.
A lot of mothers do this, but everything...
decision-making, my son has to be a part of it.
Does he have spring break?
Well, then I can't do that.
Is he doing this?
Does he have a basketball game?
