We Feel You! Sarah Lahbati Has A Relatable Post About Motherhood

Sarah Lahbati recently shared a touching message on Instagram for her kids, Zion and Kai, after she spent quality time with them at an interactive museum.

In her post, the celebrity mom shared her musings on motherhood, expressing gratitude for being a mother despite its challenges. Sarah also reflected on the blessings of watching her sons grow into kind young boys, emphasizing that although life isn't perfect, they are still blessed.

"Sometimes I wonder how I will manage everything, how I will balance it all, but then I am reminded of how lucky I am to be your mom," she wrote.

Sarah added, "Life is like a wave, and I should just ride it… I feel blessed to watch you grow into kind young boys. Life isn't perfect, but we are truly blessed, and my heart is full."

The Kapuso actress and her sons have been enjoying quality time together, going on date nights, and celebrating Mother's Day as a family. She frequently uploads snippets of their adventures on her Instagram.

Sarah tied the knot with actor Richard Gutierrez in 2020. After months of speculation from the public, Sarah confirmed in early March that they had split. The former couple unfollowed each other on Instagram in January, and Sarah moved into a new home during the same month. Despite the separation, Sarah mentioned that she and Richard are doing okay.

How Sarah Lahbati handles being a single parent

In an interview with Dyan Castillejo's show "On Cue," Sarah opened up about her motherhood journey, admitting that becoming a mom at age 20 was challenging. "I was a very young mom. Obviously, that comes with challenges and difficulties, but it also comes with so many blessings [and] learnings."

Now 30, Sarah added that motherhood has allowed her to learn new things. "As a mom, you always learn along the way; I can do this and do that. You question yourself, but with age and through the years, you just grow, you learn, and you're more confident that you can handle anything."

Sarah shared that ever since she had her firstborn, she wanted to be the "cool mom" but eventually learned that she had to balance discipline. 

"I have to make sure that when they grow up, I will be able to have difficult conversations with them and be their best friend. [But] I [also] have to make sure I raise kind, humble, smart, loving boys," she explained. "It's really a balancing act every day." 

Following her split with Richard, whom she was with for over a decade, Sarah admitted that organizing everything for her kids was hard at first.

"It's difficult initially, but it gets smoother for sure through time."  She added that Zion and Kai support her career, sharing that they are watching their parents' shows.

Like any mom, Sarah admitted that she gets anxious when thinking about the future for herself and her kids, but she couldn't be more grateful for her support system.
