I want to be the woman who is exhausted.
I want to be the woman who has too many lines around her eyes.
I want to be the woman who is not well kept at all times.
I want to be the woman who is never flawless.
I want to be the woman whose hands are rough and dry.
I want to be the woman whose feet and back ache every night.
I want to be the woman who does more than she should.
I want to be the woman who asks for little in return.
I want to be the woman who makes the most of little and celebrates the lot.
I want to be the woman that despite all of these things her eyes sparkle because she knows that the people she loves most are well cared for and happy. Those things make her happy. Those things fulfill her day. It may not be the life that she could have ever envisioned for herself but it's the one that makes her most content.
I want to be that woman. There is honor in honest living. Charm is deceptive. Beauty is fleeting. Love is eternal.
Proverbs 31:30-31
