Motherhood

One of the hardest things about being a mama is that every stage is hard; I am in the season of preschool & elementary school and find myself simultaneously longing for the "easier" season of newborn and the next season of independence. Certainly wouldn't go back to newborn because it means I'd find myself back here again all too soon. Don't want to wish away this season for the next because I'm sure this is another season I will look back at with rose colored glasses and want back. 

It's trifficult. I'm working on reflecting and finding the moments of joy amidst the chaos - the crying, the singing, the barking... it can be hard sometimes. Okay, it's quite a challenge. 

One thing is certain; I love my children with my whole heart and will continue to do the work to enjoy the season, whichever it may be, and give thanks that I get to share it with them.

All this talk about seasons has me jonesin' to decorate for fall!
