Rachel Hurd-Wood Instagram – 💗 You know how everyone says the early years of parenting/childhood fly by? Well they (insert strong word of choice) don’t. I look back at pics of Liam as a baby, like this one, and it feels like an eternity ago. 👩‍👧‍👦 Prior to Stella being born, I felt like I’d hit my stride. Days felt full of purpose, I liked the new grounded mother version of myself way more than the wayward drifter I was in my early 20’s. But now, two kids in and I just don’t really know what’s what anymore. Days pass, there’s no time to achieve anything, there’s guilt over wanting to achieve anything other than putting my all into mothering, I try and be present but crave the escape of screen-time and treats. ⚡️ I’d like to pretend I’ve got it all figured out but I’m still finding my way. Hope this doesn’t come off as complaining, that’s not my intention, just wanted to say if anyone can relate to the sense of being lost, or unsure how to claim/reclaim their identity, I get it. And you’re not the only one. #parenting #identity #earlyyears #nap
