I love this! I am generally pretty content but often find myself comparing myself to other moms with more experience (I’ve only been a mom for 4 months now!). Turning it around into asking for help is brilliant. Thank you!

You are so right! I’ve been working on contentment for sometime now. In college, I was so consumed with envy of others success, good looks, etc. I was working more on “being like them” than my school work! What a waste of time!
