“I lay down at the beach and look down at my body

Mateo Elijah

“I lay down at the beach and look down at my body. I see the changes. I see stretch marks on my stomach, I see wrinkles on my breasts. Sometimes the changes can be hard to look at, some days even I feel bad

But then… I looked PAST my body. Do you see the boy running there? That’s Liam. The boy I made, the baby that was in MY stomach. The baby that my breasts magically produced milk for so he could survive on just me.

How amazing is that? Sometimes you have to look at the BIGGER PICTURE, just like in this one. So you can remind your mindset to tell you how incredibly amazing you are, and how proud you should be of it.

We all did an amazing job, marks or not.”
