Parenting alone can be the most challenging and lonely thing you’ve ever done. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, even panicked, by the thought of holding yourself together enough to raise a child who is happy, healthy, smart and balanced. Take heart, Mom. The details don’t matter nearly as much as you think they do. It’s the big, over-arcing spirit of your home that counts when it comes to raising children. Maybe you have to work late sometimes, maybe you make mistakes; you’re still Mom, you still love your child and that’s still all that really matters.
