All-the-mom-things
I’ll admit that I do recognize my love language to be quality time. I think that’s why I have found myself lonely in so many crowded circumstances. Unrequited friendships leave me feeling empty. Those things are empty. And at many, many points of motherhood, the care and love you give your babies is unrequited.
And now, I just don’t know if I can ever go back to sleep, again. I don’t know if I ever want Jimmy to go to sleep, again. Life before the seizure is no longer. We have a new routine.
Mommies don’t do everything right. You are your own person. I support you in your decisions and I am here for you when you fall. Because darling – you will fall. That is what life is all about.
