Motherhood…..
Where all our feelings come to meet us.
The bearer of boundless joy
at the wonder of the lives you’ve brought into the world.
The bearer of quiet pain,
watching our children stumble through their own becoming - through moments we cannot soften,
through storms we cannot protect them from.
The bearer of a trembling fear:
that the weight of these days may always be this heavy, and at the very same time that it may pass too quickly to hold.
The bearer of a tender sorrow,
knowing this season of small hands and young hearts is only lent to us - for our children were never ours to keep.
And through all of what motherhood brings - we learn, we grow, we change and we are transformed forever. What a privilege. What a journey. Now let me just get a bit more sleep…
(My thoughts for today)
Happy Mothers Day ❤️
