A mama poem
Feeling deep feels as my kids grow older.
In order for me to embrace new stages of life - It’s important for me to feel, express and let go.
Also if you watch the video down below - the kids burst in at the perfect time. Totally was not planned 💛
A mama poem
a child comes into the world
we are their mama
we feed them from our breasts
we bathe with them in our baths
we lay their head by our heart
we rest and repeat
this child becomes a toddler
less time near our bodies
for they are wild about the world
exploring around mamas feet
we rest and repeat
our toddler then becomes a young lady
pushing limits with freedom on her finger tips
climbing trees gracefully in their favorite dress
forever hearing - watch me mama
for they are proud to show you what their bodies can do
begging you to see the world through their eyes
rest and repeat
you feel the change
as its been changing daily, weekly, & yearly
watching them become
this time is precious
this time is only here for a moment
rest now doesn’t come easy, mama
for each passing day calls us to let go just a bit more
knowing deeply this is only a transition
knowing now rest means holding that young lady in your arms
supporting her in ways that feel new
holding onto the memories and holding space for those to come
crack my heart wide open child
i am here for this
i am here for you
