Well-behaved women seldom make history

So I saw this quote and it struck a chord with me. I used to think that because I became a wife & mother that I had to become this perfect, goody goody person who wasn't allowed to make a mistake,ask for help, or do anything that wasn't proper "mom behavior". I have since realized(thanks A.) that you can have it all. What I mean by that is I can still be me (the fun, wild, loud, crazy girl ). I was so used to repressing this part of me that I became unsure of myself and was not in a happy place. Thanks to some soul searching, long talks w/ A, and a fabulous girl trip to Costa Rica :) I am happy to announce that yes people that girl is back! And boy did I ever miss her! I realized that I don't have to lock that part of me away, it would be a terrible shame if my kids never got to know the real me. I mean she's the one you all fell in love w/ anyway. I am much happier now and feeling more self-assured than ever. Anyways, what's the point of being good if you're not having any fun?
