It was a hard post to write and I appreciate your openness to the conversation!

It’s wonderful to know I’m not alone on this crazy adventure we call motherhood. From what I can see, you are carrying motherhood with grace. Big hugs.

It is so helpful to be reminded that I’m not alone in my struggles because it’s easy to lose sight of that when you’re “in it.” I think you’re right that focusing on the long game, especially in the early years, is key when we’re trying to figure this parenting thing out. That, and taking pleasure in baby laughs, of course.
