Thank you to my friend and sober sister @recovery_ Thank you to my friend and sober sister @recovery_revival for this powerful story!
In 2019 I remember getting in touch with my photographer. I emphasized the fact that I had to bring my wine bottle and my husband was bringing beer. I mean that is how we made it through the first year with the twins, right?? She was all for it, she even made a sign for me. 
I looked at this photo time and time again because once I got sober I started studying our kids faces and how they are just looking at us with almost concern and confusion. Like, why are mom and dad taking a picture with that. We put our drinking on a pedestal. Not only that but my husband and I hated each other that day. He wanted nothing to do with family photos. We were also so bloated because this was the year our drinking had really ramped up. I hated this picture for a long time in the beginning of my sobriety. 
Fast forward to this year. 21 months sober. New family shoot. New photographer. Happier times. Missing a child (now I wish I just forced him to go) but it is what it is. I can look at the first photo with peace in my heart now. That women in the first picture just didn’t know any better. She was lost, ashamed and confused because she truly thought that drinking was just a part of life. I forgive her because she was doing the best she could with what she knew to be true. Now that I know better, I do better and that’s all I can ask if myself.
And when something goes wrong, the guilt is relent And when something goes wrong, the guilt is relentless.
Why do I even ask? 🧟‍♀️ 👽 👹 Why do I even ask? 🧟‍♀️ 👽 👹
Do not feed off the lies of mommy wine culture. Dr Do not feed off the lies of mommy wine culture. Drinking to numb out the hard parts of parenting will inevitably numb out the best moments too. If you are drowning in the struggles of motherhood (and let’s face it… Who isn’t?) there are safer, healthier and more sustainable ways to cope. Ways that will not impact your relationship with your children, spouse, but most importantly, yourself. Try community, therapy, and/or talking to your doctor ❤️❤️❤️
