When I live in the moment, I see those herons flying overhead.
And I’m right there with them.
Gracefully managing the flight regardless of the baggage I carry.
“And it fucking sucks that he doesn’t get to see Ava twirling in her pouffy pink princess costume in front of blooming forsythia.”
What pulls us and how do we find harmony?
“…and there I found myself on the couch with both these small people cuddled on me. It felt like exactly where I was supposed to be. Exactly where I am.”
I want the world for these children I birthed and raised so far. And clearly, going away and spending time together as our Family awakened this knowledge in me. Something I already strived for, but a deeper sense of it was cracked wide open inside of me.
Parenting is so much more than you can recognize and realize before you become one. It is so much more than you know even as you’re in the midst of it. And it is hard.
And that my dear is who you are. Firm in what you want. Not afraid to speak your mind. And absolutely in charge.
I have a secret. Our new house doesn’t feel like home yet.
The delicious life that is created amongst the everyday.
What is mothering and how do we value our roles and ourselves?
