When you become a parent, there’s this thing that happens to you that changes you to your core. All of a sudden, you’re responsible for raising a tiny human to be a good person and for teaching them all about life. But here’s the thing. We don’t ever have it all figured out. Tirelessly, we do the best we can to parent. Day in and day out, we question if we’re doing it right; one minute we’re losing our ever-loving mind, and the next, we’re gushing with love so big our heart might burst. The real kicker is that sometimes these kids teach us more about life than we could ever teach them. That’s super power.
My babies are my heroes. They have super powers that amaze me every day. Here are four reasons why my children are my super heroes.
-
They love relentlessly.
The pureness of my babies’ hearts reminds me every day that love is the biggest super power anyone could possess.
-
They are constantly learning and evolving every day.
Each day is a new adventure for these little babes. Their minds are sponges, and every day, they learn something new and share their joy for it. They remind me that I should be doing the same.
-
They love the world.
My little girl loves the outdoors and loves being around people. The simple innocence of loving her surroundings with abandon is a gift, a super power. I’m sure those are traits she’ll have fun teaching her brother, and hopefully, it’s a gift she’ll continue to share with the rest of the world.
-
They swoop in to rescue you at just the right moment.
When I’m feeling down or have the weight of the world on my shoulders, I’ll get a tug on my shirt and have little arms wrap around me. With eyes twinkling up at me, the cutest little voice whispers, “I love you, Mama,” and it fills my soul. Or when my little boy smiles and coos at me just when I think I have no more energy to keep going. It’s then that I muster up the strength to get through whatever it is that’s difficult. Only super heroes can do that.
My children are my super heroes because they remind me of all the good in the world. It’s something that I’ll be grateful for forever. I hope they’ll never forget the super hero strength they hold.
One of our very favorite clothing brands, Mini Boden, has just released its spring line with a hero and rescue theme, and it’s adorable. From animals to rainbows, all things cheery and heroic make this collection one of my favorites that Mini Boden has done. I absolutely love all of their fun prints! Mini Boden is also one of my favorite brands because of the quality of their clothes. As a mama, you know that things get washed a million times; these clothes look great wash after wash. They’re also some of the softest clothes that my kiddos have in their closet. And the shoes and socks are just too cute for words.
