The wolves won’t stop my education

I will rise above.

The week of this assignment involved:
📄 filing and serving a restraining order
👮🏻 phone calls with sheriffs, 🕵🏼 detectives, and 👨🏻‍💼 state attorneys
🤕 a nice little concussion
😢 a couple mental breakdowns
👨🏻‍⚖️ a few trips to some courts
And yet…

I KILLED THIS ASSIGNMENT.

I will continue to thrive. I WILL finish my education and give my girls answers I the BEST possible life.

Defeated

There’s some days where I just feel so defeated.

Today is one of those days.

I am proud of where I am in life. I have come so far. But, I am tired. Raising neurodivergent kids alone is so SO hard. It’s a full time job in itself. I try so SO hard to be a good mom. I just don’t feel like I am enough sometimes.

I am drained. Mentally and physically.

I wish I could do more. Be more.

Be more patient.

Be more kind.

Be more resilient.

Be more loving.

I pour my all into my girls, career, and education.

Until I don’t have anything more to pour.

Right now I feel like I am drawing in a hurricane. I know the Lord will help me through this storm. I will continue to trust Him.
