Usher once made an entire album labeled Confessions, but moms don’t have that luxury. We’re stuck whispering our thoughts to our spouses, hoping the kids won’t hear, and trying to keep our big fears and worries tied down enough in our brains that they don’t unleash into a cloud of anxiety. So when we get the chance to leak out a confession or two, they’re usually pretty mind-blowing.
Of course we moms have tiny confessions like stealing a roll of toilet paper from work because we don’t want to stop by the store on the way home or ordering DoorDash after our kids go to bed so we can eat a Dairy Queen Blizzard in peace, but these confessions? Well, some of them are a little rocky. Some of them have clearly been felt for a long time. And some of them are just heartbreaking.
In the middle of all of it is a mom who’s trying her best, a mom who wants to be her best. And these are her confessions.
