Savoring your Motherhood Journey

This week, we’re focusing on savoring our motherhood experiences. Savoring means being present and fully engaging with our children and families. Motherhood is a profound blessing, yet it’s easy to become absorbed—and sometimes overwhelmed—by the many responsibilities that come with it, which can make us miss out on appreciating the richness of these moments.

Our activity this week is simple: take time to enjoy the moments you share with your child(ren). To help with this, try setting aside just 5-10 minutes each day to put away distractions, slow down, and be fully present. It could be as simple as sharing a quiet moment, reading a book together, or talking about their day. The goal is to notice and savor the little details, allowing yourself to be fully in the moment with them.

People always told me that the early years fly by, and I didn’t quite believe it because some days feel so long. But now, with my 4- and 5-year-olds growing so quickly, I can hardly believe how fast time has passed. I understand now what people meant. One day, our children will be busy with their own lives and have less time for their mom. Until then, I want to cherish these moments—and I hope you find time to do the same with your family.
