Is this what it means to be a mom these days??? I see it everyday, women becoming moms and using it as an excuse to give up on themselves. It hurts me to see this day in and day out. You know who I'm talking about... you drop your kids off at nursery school or t-ball practice, and the high-wasted capri pants mom squad, covertly staring you up and down out of the corner of their eye, are congregating and talking about play dates and the great bogo deal on laundry detergent, as if these are the only things mom-bots should care about.
Pull it together!
My name is Amy Cozze, and I'm more than just a mom, and ya know what? THAT'S OK. While being a mom to my two amazing little boys, Jacob & Koen, is indeed my most important role on this earth, it's not my only one. I'm 30 years old, a business owner, a wife, a friend, a free-spirit, an intellect, a dreamer, a fashionista, a philanthropist, an optimist, a hard-worker, and I'm pretty sure there are even more hats waiting for me in the future. I'm sick of people using motherhood as an excuse to let themselves go, take pride in your appearance and in your contribution to the world around you. Get up in the morning wanting to put the best version of yourself out there for the world to see, and do it unapologetically, not just for your kids or your husband, but for YOU. Own yourself, love yourself, and for goodness sake, PULL IT TOGETHER.
