Truthful Tuesday

Its Tuesday....time for another round of Truthful Tuesdays....brought to you by Elizabeth over at her blog....

This week's question is:

How has motherhood taught you to let go?

I wouldn't say I've "let go" so much as sacrificed.....I sacrificed getting my nails done....or getting routine eye brow waxing....little things....that in the grand scheme of things, aren't that important to my self worth now that I have these two pieces of my heart walking around in the world.

I will say, since getting into selling Avon, I'm gaining part of that back! I now have all fresh make-up...something that hasn't happened in AGES...not that I wear it on a daily basis anymore, but I know I have good stuff!!! Stuff I like and WILL wear!

And today, I'm actually getting my eyebrows taken care of! So, slowly but surely I'm getting the little things back!

I do dream of having a bi-weekly manicure....maybe when the kids are in school....


So, lets have it....How has motherhood taught you to let go??


Til next time...ciao!

  1. I think you make a good distinction here; in a way, "letting go" happens subconsciously. But "sacrificing/giving up" is a conscious decision to do what's best for you, your family, etc.!!!
