Grateful Doesn’t Begin to Cover it and Yet…

…this time is still so difficult. I love being a mom and right now teething and very little sleep are super tricky for all of us in our house. I am so lucky we are all healthy and now there’s another thing to worry about with this new variant. I am fortunate to work from home and switching from mom mode to therapist mode is clunky and weird most days. I am thankful beyond measure to have this baby I waited so long for and there’s so much grief that exists about the way she got here and all that I missed out on. Living in the both/and is the reality of this blessed life. Remembering to breathe and take in all the joy I can is what keeps me going.
