Sis, Celebrate Those Wins! (Yes, Even the “Little” Ones)

Hey Mamas,

Is it just me, or do the days be disappearing? Like, HOW did 24 hours just fly by, and all I got to show for it is one thing off my list? The other day, I washed a whole load of laundry—for two adults and two toddlers—then had the audacity to feel unaccomplished because I had five things on my list and only checked off one.

But girl… I played myself.

Lately, I’ve been on this self-growth, self-elevation, “I’m THAT mom” journey, and I’ve learned a little something that I HAVE to share with my internet mommy squad. So, let’s get into it.

🎉 Celebrate EVERY Win (Yes, Even That Little One) 🎉

Let’s go back to my so-called “unproductive” laundry day. I thought I only got one thing done, but in reality? Ya girl was out here running a full-blown operation.

• Got both kids up on time (because waking a sleeping toddler is a delicate art).

• Brushed AND flossed my 4-year-old’s teeth without a WWE-style fight.
• Micromanaged my preteen like a project manager on a deadline.
• Survived TWO chaotic school drop-off lines.
• Made breakfast for my tiny boss (a.k.a. my 2-year-old) and curated the perfect YouTube playlist to keep him entertained.
• Folded laundry between handing out applesauce, dodging tantrums, and keeping the house from looking like a disaster zone.
• Had the tablets charged the night before (because,baby, I refuse to let a dead iPad ruin my peace in thepickup line).
• Picked up the kids, avoided public meltdowns, and still managed to present dinner options to my husband like I was on “Chopped.”

And yet, I really sat there thinking… “All I did today was laundry.”Nah, we’re NOT doing that anymore! Now, I tell myself: “Damn girl, you DID that! Can’t wait to see what you pull off tomorrow.” Then I reward myself with a snack, sneak off for a 2.6-minute break (before the kids notice I’m missing), and enjoy it in peace.

Mamas, Stop Playing Yourself!

If you take nothing else from this, take THIS: stop downplaying what you do every single day.

Because baby, that “regular” stuff? It’s WORK. And you handle it like a boss. Laundry? That was just a lil’ side quest. You been handling the main mission all day!
