There’s no turning back time, but surely there are moments we wish we could either relive again and again or instances that we want to rewrite completely. For moms, especially, there are important lessons about motherhood that they only realize when they’ve become older.
Parenting can be a struggle despite the joy it brings to moms and dads, so we thought it would be nice if they could reflect on the little triumphs that they’ve collected along the way. We asked readers on our Facebook page, “If you could write a note to your younger self, what would you say?” and they responded not only with words of wisdom, but empowering and touching messages for their past selves. Of course, there were fun and cheeky statements, too!
