Year 2 at the pumpkin patch and our little pumpkin did MUCH BETTER. 🤣

I can’t get over how tiny and cute his rain boots are. 😭🥰

Watching Dion exist in the world makes me feel exc

Watching Dion exist in the world makes me feel excited and terrified at the same time. I’m obsessed with him. I want all the best for him but I’m terrified that I’m not doing enough. That there can be more.

Raising a human is hard. Really hard. This tiny soul is going to be a full grown man one day. With opinions and ideologies and feelings that he will learn while navigating this world as well as from us at home. I am responsible for sending a fully functioning person into this crazy world and it’s a job I take very seriously.

Today started with me making a coffee and contemplating all the ways I could be getting this parenting thing wrong. I was about to start beating myself up about it when I heard his little laugh as he pulled all of his books from his bookshelf. He was laughing at the pile of books on the floor. Where I see a mess, my son sees joy.

Watching him made me take a deep breath. Like, REALLY deep. One of those “the kid’s gonna be alright” breaths.

A reminder to all the mamas out there, take a breath. We’re doing the best we can.
