Seussical
I go to therapist weekly and meet with a group biweekly. We are currently working out of a book that is truly making me think on some things. In it I came across this paragraph and thought I would share it.
Perfectionism creeps into all aspects of life. There is no more important responsibility than raising children, so it's no surprise women are sensitive to anything that suggests the did less than 110 percent for their kids. Forget it! No one can be uber-mom 24/7, but you can be a "good - enough" mom who gets better at it as you go along.
I know we all face this battle once in a while and just thought I would share this with you.
We are all good enough. Why make ourselves crazy thinking we aren't? It just adds one more thing on us we don't need.
