I’m in the final stretch on the way to so many things that are looming…
Less than a week until Mother’s Day, a holiday that’s become a mix of beautiful and sadness all rolled into one these past couple of years.
Less than a month until I have to leave Baby Girl and go back to work, with her starting daycare and me trying to maneuver the “fifth trimester” with the added stress of a NJ-to-NYC commute this time.
Less than half a year until I begin a new decade (AKA my birthday). I might not be feeling this one so much if it wasn’t for the silver strands that keep appearing around my part-line, reminding me it’s fast-approaching.
So much change, whether I like it or not.
For now, I’m enjoying every second of the “now”. Every cuddle I can get. While I could put her down to nap and go do the dishes or cleanup around the house, you’ll almost always find me curled up with her in my arms on the couch.
Just because I can.
Just because she loves it just as much as I do.
