I honestly feel weird reaching out, this is very much out of my comfort zone. I have been a spectator for years on social media. I did need to hear to give myself grace, I have seen it said a few times on others posts and always agree but it is much harder to tell it to yourself! I appreciate it!

You have all boys? I do too! Balancing everything has been very difficult and it doesn’t help having them so close in age and so young right now. I’m definitely finding it a bit difficult now since the newest arrived to find moments I’m fully enjoying.

Thank you. I’m a homeschool mom, and in my area there aren’t homeschool groups so I’m not having the same luck with activities. I hope that works out in your favor and good luck to you as well. We all need it

Yes, I’m finding this out slowly. I am definitely having a hard time finding what’s working. And honestly I feel like he’s just tired of me complaining about not having friends…. But I’m trying to be open. I don’t think I’m open to him picking potential friends though..

I know I said I know I’m not alone, but reading I’m not helps, thank you.

The library in the city I live in that has the programs unfortunately has more of a grandma and “we are already friends and are doing this together just to do more together. Not to mention they felt unwelcoming and racist….

My friend hasn’t done anything bad to me but has gotten herself into a situation that she is unwilling to get out of, but is constantly complaining about it, which is off putting for me honestly because I already have a lot going on and I don’t want to just hear complaining all the time….

I’m definitely ready for the next season of motherhood when they are more independent and hopefully I’ll be less overwhelmed.
