The series we did last year was such a joy for me. We are all so unique with individual stories to tell, and still I felt completely connected to each of you. A beautiful thing!
As I was reading my own words, I was reflecting on how things had changed in some ways, and still my joys and wishes for my children are still pretty much the same.
I feel that my kids are more independent now than they have ever been. The boys spend their days at school and it's a different balance now to develop that independence and keep that connection as we spend much less of our time together. They are also learning to navigate their own worlds which is exciting and harrowing at the same time.
On the other hand, The Babe and I spend most of our waking hours together which is a blessing and a special kind of challenge unto itself!
The kids are such a 'unit' unto themselves these days. Their interactions are full of wild dynamics, playing and fighting and pushing and pulling each other in many directions.
One of my wishes for them is to appreciate the bond and friendship they have in each other. Hearing them laugh and play and work together is music to my ears...however rare!
And so I am so pleased to carry on with more stories from more incredible, beautiful women in Motherhood!
