I make the hard decisions. I follow through. And it sucks. They whine and complain and their faces turn into little scowls. They tell me it isn’t fair. Apparently, NO ONE ELSE has parents like this!!!
Hey there! I’m Mikala—a family doctor, wife, mother of 5, well-being advocate, and author of the books Ordinary on Purpose and Everything I Wish I Could Tell You About Midlife. Each month my writing reaches millions of women, but I am thrilled to be connecting with YOU. I’m truly grateful to have you here!

Let go of the stressing and striving. Let go of distraction and discontentment. Let go of chasing perfection. Your kids don't want perfect...they just want you.
Please God, help me be a patient mom… All too often I am impatient.
I AM WITH YOU. To me it says 'You are smart. And beautiful. And strong. And capable. I believe in you. I am always on your side.'
