I find this story remarkably comforting. I must have a newborn because I also find myself thinking, that’s what I’m supposed to be and do too. Where has my focus gone? Oh, to the same place my sleep has…
This is awesome! When my daughter was 6, she told me she didn’t want to be a mommy because mommies have to put their kids before their art. When I suggested it was possible to both create art and mother, she said, “But you don’t.” Stopped me cold. I didn’t know until that moment how much she took in. I’d like to say that I was different after that, that I’ve been able to give her a model of how to be a woman in which I’ve been able to equally honor both parts of myself, but I haven’t. I will say it was the beginning of a long and on-going conversation. (She is 15 now.)
I am new to your blog and I love it! This series of pictures is friggin’ hilarious. And a total compliment, in my book. For who could ever read and write too much?!?
