Dear ,

It's time for me to send my first child out into the world, and I'm taking some time off from the studio to do that. The studio will be closed from May 27-June 8, while I prepare my heart for this transition. But to be honest, as mothers, we are kind of preparing for this moment our whole parenting lives, aren't we?

 

All orders placed between 5/27 --> 6/8 

will process on June 9.

thank you for planning ahead ♥

 

We know from day 1 that our children are not OURS - they don't belong to US. We get the privilege of guiding them, nurturing them, and always loving them. But we don't get to keep them.

 

Deep down we know this day will come where all we've done/said/given will be tested and off they will go. This doesn't stop me from referring to my children as MY babies, MY boys, MY hearts. The "MY" is just symbolic, I guess ♥

 

I realize what breaks me down and brings tears is visions of my boy at 6, sweet, salty and hilarious. My boy at 10, snuggling into my arms in the morning before he starts his day, just for a few moments. My boy at 13, one of the only 'big kids' I know that will spontaneously wrap his arms around his mom or dad.

But then I remember that those versions of him are not going anywhere. The young man is. I have the tender moments in my mind, and I'm allowed to keep them there, as I let the young man go out into world and make his own life. It is time. He is ready. And we are so happy for him!

 

TBH, I've been BLOCKED on Silent Story book 2.

Perhaps I have been avoiding it as if 

doing so would delay the moment...
