12 Uplifting Quotes for Moms That Will Make You Smile

Motherhood is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. It is constant learning, adjusting, giving, worrying, listening, and the list goes on. Sometimes I find myself in tears wondering how I could feel so unfufilled in something I’ve longed for since I was 5-years-old. And then other times I am so full of love and joy that I can barely contain it. I’ve collected some of my favorite uplifting quotes for moms that will make you smile in the midst of the harder days.

The truth is, motherhood is hard because it’s hard. And that’s just that. It’s not hard because of who you or your children are.
