Rubyellen of Cakies is one of my very favorite bloggers. She is gorgeous and even more beautiful on the inside! She and her sweet girls {Brave, True, Soul and Glow} modeled for our Mother’s day look book. And I asked her a few questions so you can get to know her too!
What is something special you do for yourself?I treat myself to big cup full of yogurt from Yogurtland every Friday.As a mom, what do you worry about?I’m a stay-home (also, work-at-home) mom, but I often worry that I didn’t spend enough time with my children or give them enough attention. My days are constantly filled with doing things with and for them that I feel like I don’t do enough cherishing of them. I know it might sound crazy, but I worry about them remembering me as a busy mom and not a cherishing mom. I’m constantly working at trying to do both, but days are fast and hard, so somedays I’m just trying to keep my head above water.What’s one fun thing you love to do as a family?Every Friday night, as soon as Ben comes home, we have family movie and cuddle night. We put on a movie, hop into bed together (we watch from my computer which is in our master bedroom), and cuddle and watch a movie. The baby always claims me as her cuddle partner and doesn’t like to share!
I think we can all relate to feeling like we’re just trying to keep our heads above water–motherhood takes so much. And it’s beautiful and so imperfect!
Tell us friends, as a mother, what’s one thing you worry about? Or if you’re not a mother, share something else that nags at your heart!
I worry that I am not present enough and that everything is going to fly by and I’ll be like, “Huh? How’d that happen so fast?!”
