I’m in this funny in-between season of motherhood…One foot in the world of teenage independence, eye rolls, and deep voices…And the other still in the world of little boy cuddles, bedtime snuggles, and “mama, watch me.”
I have a teen who’s growing up so fast it takes my breath away - becoming his own person, stretching his wings, needing me less and less (or at least pretending he does).
And I have my little one, who still holds my hand, still sneaks into my arms, still cuddles me hard. I know this window is closing, so I’m holding on tight to every hug, every kiss, every “I love you” I can get.
It’s a beautiful, bittersweet mix of holding on and letting go…Of watching them grow while wishing I could freeze time, even just for a moment.
To all the mamas in the same season - I see you. It’s messy, emotional, and full of quiet, magical moments we’ll remember forever.
Happy Mother’s Day to all of us navigating both worlds with full hearts ❤️
