she’s a month and one day old and i adore her in ways i didn’t know was necessarily possible i think of her at every store and want to buy her all the things (channeling that energy into getting my finances in order so i can spoil her when it matters)
nothing like having a tiny human u love to put things in Perspective (but also she’s not my kid so i still sleep well at night)

Big Moments:
* Birthing my daughter. Was it intense? Yes. But it’s also insane feeling a baby exit your body… my husband and I sang “I like you as you are” to her while the midwife team was doing all their checks and what not. It felt very perfect and so different from my son’s birth.
* Floating in the Nantucket Sound and feeling at peace, a marked difference from years prior when floating would send me into brief fight or flight. Also, just being able to swim in the ocean as much as I wanted for a few days.
* My son starting preschool and LOVING it. We did a lot of preparation but I was still worried sending him off into the world without me. It’s been awesome to see how much he’s grown in a positive way.
I have had so many small moments over the past year that felt idyllic, and I’ve made a mental note to hold onto them. Small moments with my husband, kids, other family, friends. My day to day isn’t as expansive as it was in the past, but it’s deepened. I love this stage of life. It’s full of so much love.

Making pink dumplings, hanging out with my two little girls who ask you to carry them downstairs, demanding fresh nail polish before bed, stocking up on markers for their coloring books, helping them fall asleep by brushing their noses and answering questions like do mice have cousins? And now I’m sitting with a half eaten apple slice and a crayon in my hoodie pocket lol, what a blessing
