I love that you can acknowledge that you know and understand âcaring for your children and familyâ is the most important thing because as a single person there is nothing more frustrating for me than for someone who has the life I would die for in being a stay at home mom, or even just a mom period, complain all day every day about being said stay at home mom or just mom and the struggles that are unique instead of seeing the huge blessings youâve been entrusted with. So many single women or women without children who desperately want those do NOT want to hear from a mother how hard their life is with children when they would trade places in a split second just to have the experience or being a mom for 5 min..
Oh my goodness! I totally feel the "productivity" thing. I am a teacher, but the summer is when I get to be SAHM Lite since my husband works during the summer. Some days are easier than others. Keep your head up, mama! God's got this, and because of that, you got this! :)
Emma- Your videos make me feel so reassured. I am feeling the same way, being pulled in 50 different directions with a toddler and new born. Thank you for helping us SAHMs feel validated and heard. â€
Your videos are always so encouraging for me as a stay at home mom in the postpartum season as well. Thank you for all of the reminders and realizations you shared, they really helped me reflect on my current mindset. Thank you for your honesty and realness and making me feel less alone in this season/stage of life.
I think youâre doing great. Like you said, we shouldnât value ourselves on what we can get accomplished all the time. As long as we are doing our part and striving to fulfill our needs and those of our family, I think we are on the right track as moms.đ
This was a beautiful video. Thank you for being so raw and honest. I think all mothers,regardless of their stage, can relate. Prayers for you for balance, rest, and grace.
Iâm in the throes of newborn life as well! As sweet as this stage is, it is hard!! I feel you on that! Something that I have to remind myself is that this is a season of being present, not productive. Youâre doing a great job mama!!
I wish I would have had your channel many years ago when I was a stay at home mom. Back then, if you were a stay at home mom, you were expected to have the perfect house, etc. It was really tough for us stay at home moms. I'm so glad that times are shifting and that isn't the case anymore. Thank you for your realistic vlogs :)
Iâm a new SAHM and Iâve really had to let my standards lower to give myself some grace. I have a 19 month old girl and 3 month old boy girl twins! Emmaâs channel has really helped me be more gentle on myself! Itâs nice to know Iâm not alone đ I appreciate your perspective and hope youâre giving yourself more grace these days and enjoying your life more than you were able to because of the standards back then đ (not trying to say you werenât enjoying your life or anything but I totally understand burning yourself out to try and keep up with the joneses if you will đ€Ș) much love đ

The productivity/to do list worth/idol is my current conviction too! We are not alone đ«¶đ»
I relate to just about everything you shared. Thank you for sharing and helping me not feel alone in this season!

Your reflections on the importance of giving your kids all that love and care made me cry! So true! You're doing great.

Make a vlog about all kinds of baby things, like how to calm a crying baby, baby care, putting a baby to sleep in a Moby wrap, etc. thanks

Always be honest, it's how people relate to you. You're doing so great as a mom and career woman.
