“This Too Shall Pass”: A Tired Mom’s Gentle Mantra for Everyday Chaos

“This Too Shall Pass”: A Tired Mom’s Gentle Mantra for Everyday Chaos

It's Not Hard to Love a Child... It's Hard to Do Anything Else While Loving Them

There’s a quote that hits home for so many moms:

“It’s not difficult to take care of a child.
It is difficult to do anything else while taking care of a child.” – Julianne Moore

Truth, right?

Some days, brushing your hair feels like a luxury. Cooking a meal uninterrupted? A miracle. And finishing a cup of chai while it's still hot? Practically a fantasy.

And yet, somehow—we do it. Through the mess, the meltdowns, and the million tiny tasks, we keep going.

But how?

The Mantra That Keeps Us Going

Somewhere between the spilled milk and the sticky hands, a quiet voice in our heads reminds us:

“This too shall pass.”

It’s not just a phrase—it’s a lifeline. A whispered promise that the tough days won’t last forever.

The tantrums will fade.
The sleepless nights will pass.
The overwhelming moments will soften into memories.

And one day, we’ll look back and realize—we made it through. We didn’t just survive it. We showed up, over and over again.

For the Mom Who Feels Like She’s Not Doing Enough

Let’s get honest for a second.

You might feel like you’re constantly failing—forgetting school forms, running out of snacks, losing your temper.

But you’re not failing. You’re mothering.

And mothering is messy, loud, beautiful, exhausting, and full of love—all at once.

So if you're reading this while hiding in the bathroom for five minutes of peace, or scrolling while your toddler climbs the kitchen counter—know this:

💛 You are enough.
💛 You’re doing more than you think.
 💛 You’re not alone.

So, To Every Tired Mom Out There…

Next time your to-do list is untouched and your patience is thinning, remember:

“This too shall pass.”

And when it does, you’ll miss those tiny fingers wrapped around yours, the way they say “amma” when they’re scared, and even the chaos of toys underfoot.

So breathe. You’re doing great. And on the days you don’t feel like you are, we’re here cheering you on.

At The Nesavu, we’re all about celebrating parenthood—the highs, the lows, and the messy middles.
 For the moments that feel like too much, dress your child in comfort that brings a smile
