When you spend your days surrounded by little people it's easy to get tunnel vision. Even if I'm out having a play date, it's usually with people that have similarly aged children. It's hard to believe that we will EVER grow out of whatever stage we're currently living in (ahem, surviving?) no matter how many people tell you how fast it goes. That's why I'm always SO grateful for time with friends who have kids that are older than mine. I spent the morning with @lyndsaymagar which always leaves me feeling encouraged. Mamas of littles, I highly recommend seeking out someone with kids a step or two (or five) ahead of your own to spend time with. Gives a really refreshing perspective. These littles will eventually sleep, there won't be a diaper in sight, they'll be able to craft unattended, theyll be skilled enough to clothe and feed themselves.....and you'll (probably) almost forget the days that they couldn't. Here's to enjoying today and living with hope for tomorrow. The ever delicate balance.
