First Lady Jill Bidenknows a thing or two about being an excellent mom.
In 1977, Jill married Joe Biden and became stepmother to his two young sons, Hunter and Beau.
Jill was patient, loving, and understanding toward her new children, perThe Washington Post.
They even pushed for their dad to propose to her.
In 1981, Jill gave birth to Ashley, officially becoming a mother of three (viaToday).
Since then,the Biden family has had a lot of good things to say about the matriarch.
Here are some parenting tips from the First Lady herself.
It’s enough to make you feel like your one and only role is “mom.”
She says you should give yourself permission to have some “me time” without feeling guilty about it.
“You have to find moments for yourself.
You have to,” the First Lady, who also works as an educator, told Parents magazine.
“We moms spend so much time questioning ourselves at least I did.
We need time to just quiet those voices in our head.”
Jill Biden can relate.
She gave some relevant advice to any mom who feels like they’re continually falling short.
“Maybe you’ve made mac ‘n’ cheese for dinner one too many times.
Maybe your temper is shorter than usual.
Maybe you’re too tired to be the ‘fun mom.’
It’s okay,” the first lady assured mothers during her interview with Parents magazine.
Biden offered this inspirational quote that moms can repeat to themselves whenever they’re experiencing an off day.
“You’re not failing.
You’re resilient,” she asserted.
