repost from @resilientlittlehearts: "A reminder for the overwhelm & mess… 

 A messy house is a sign that a family lives there

 An untidy room is a sign that a child has been playing

 Laundry is a sign that a child has been exploring 

In a world obsessed with a curated online life, remember that in real life, it is healthy & normal for your child to play, explore, & make a mess. 

This is not to say that those of us who love a clean house should feel bad about that.

But only to remember that children are always going to create messes. That's how they develop their creativity, imagination & exploration. 

So give yourself & your family grace in the mundane… the perfection we see in other places is only a curated version of reality
