All the demands of having little people who depend on you for survival can start to make everyday life feel like constant drudgery. But just because motherhood brings with it a load of “not fun at all” moments, that doesn’t mean that our whole lives have to stop being fun. We are designed to have fun sometimes, to celebrate and enjoy life, even in the midst of the chaos that motherhood inevitably brings.

We can be intentional about choosing to celebrate our everyday lives and not just wait for big holidays. As moms, we tend to put lots of pressure on ourselves to make big holidays like Christmas and birthdays extra special for our families. This can lead us to getting stuck in the futile pursuit of “perfect” celebrations.

In today’s episode, you’ll find inspiration and ideas for creating your own “everyday celebrations” that will be a source of enjoyment and fun for your family, without adding extra stress to your already overflowing to-do list.
