I love your exploration and sharing with other moms what having two kids has helped you to recognize. I’m biased—I didn’t grow up with families of a single child: so that messes with one’s perspective a lot. But even so, I quickly learned perhaps by year 3 of marriage:
Each needs to do what works best for them. Ultimately they all seems to fair well and the truth is: what guarantees do we have about anything in life?? None! But you raise awareness to help mom’s truly explore their own biases and think through what they want and the implications: only positive!
Thanks for sharing ….
And Michelle:
Hang in there mama….there are stages you’ll feel are “endless” and soon enough they pass to where you don’t even remember them existing….only to sometimes see a “new” one ….but there are breathers and you’ll see growth—because you love them, you’re present and doing the best with what you have! Much love!💞👊🏽
