Marmee March is, without a doubt, my favorite literary character of all time. And not only that, but I kind of want to be her. She is full of kindness, goodness, wisdom, and grace. She is loving, just, and sweet. I doubt she ever had a #momfail. Well, actually she admitted to Jo that her temper needed some work back when she had four extremely little women running around the house (and who amongst us can say otherwise?) So add humility to her list of honorable traits. Like Mary Poppins, Marmee is, in my opinion, practically perfect in every way. I’m currently re-reading Little Women for, like, the 5th time and I just never get tired of it. I love the character development, the emphasis on the March family’s bond, and how the relatability of the book has stood the test of time. But most of all, I love Marmee. God bless her.Upon my current reading, I’m noticing yet again the sage wisdom Marmee offers, but also how she was wise beyond her years when it came to self care. If you will allow me to be just a bit liberal with Louisa May Alcott’s beloved text, I would like to share three self care lessons straight from the immortal Marmee March.
