You Are Wise

Being a mom is to feel perpetually new at this.

Our kids are constantly changing.  ust when you think you are getting the hang of things, they develop new understanding and new skills. They reach a new stage. Remember that first year of life when the clothing sizes changed out every few months? Kids are practically new beings every time you blink.

Yet, we are not in over our heads. We do learn. We know the patterns of what delights and what frustrates them. We gather such a wealth of knowledge about our children over time. The future will always have more obstacles to meet, but remember that you have already conquered a food allergy together.

No matter how inadequate you may be feeling today, remember that actually, you are very wise.
