With all the social media attention certain moms have been getting recently, it's easy for regular moms to feel like they aren't living up to the glamorous lifestyles some moms lead.
These moms wear gorgeous outfits, have professional hair and makeup stylists, and hire professional photographers to make them look perfect, but when they share the pictures with friends and family, they act like they're just regular, everyday photos.
In fact, it couldn't be further from the truth. Many moms of young children spend most of their time covered in spit-up, drool, and food, and a lot of moms spend their weekends in sweatpants and old T-shirts. Sure, some moms are always perfectly done-up, but let's be honest: that just isn't the reality for most parents.
One mom is teaching the world that it's OK to be both glamorous and gross. Parenthood isn't about perfection, it's about doing your best and loving your kid(s).
Earlier in 2016, Sophie Cachia made headlines for sharing an honest pregnancy photo. Now she's in the news again, this time for a picture she took with her son.
Cachia is a young mom of one who is pregnant with her second child. Her little boy is in his toddler years and getting ready to become a big brother.
And although he's growing up, he definitely still loves spending time with his mommy.
Cachia takes lots of pictures of the two of them together, sharing some quality mommy–son time before the new baby is born.
Earlier this week, she shared this photo to her Instagram:
And while it looks like any other cute photo of her and her son cuddling, she shared this message: "To the naked eye, this looks like your standard cute photo of Bobby & I. This photo was in fact captured whilst I was taking a poo. Just thought I'd let you all know. Especially for all those planning on having children soon. This. Is. Your. Life. Goodnight."
Cachia's friends and fans love her honesty.
"I understand you… this picture is the perfect description of my every day routine," said one fan.
Wrote another: "I'm glad I'm not the only one whose everyday life is consumed by being a mommy, even whilst on the toilet."
