Gotta let it go...

[evythecute]

I have recently realized that i have to let go of some of my inhibitions. for my daughter's sake. i don't want to pass down my insecurities and hang up to her. i want to do my best to nurture her to continue to be the happy, free lil' her as long as i can. so if we are in the grocery store and a song she like comes on and she want to shake her booty with her mama... guess what? mama is gunna shake her booty! i am sure some people think i am a nut and i know i must look ridiculous but if it helps her be a more happy free lil' soul, then so be it. i really could care less what other people think of me as long as i am doin what is best for my girl. that's all that matters.

it is also more important now than ever for me to be ok with how i look. Yeah i need to get healthier. but there is no use in hatin on what i got now. i don't want my baby to learn to hate her body from me! i cant shelter her forever from body image issues but it sure as heck is not goin to come from me.

I just gotta let it all go. so she can grow up and be the best her she can be and not hold herself back. like i feel i have done to myself in some respects.
