Nearly Two Years

Nearly two years of nursing this babe.

Two years of nourishment. Two years of connection. Two years of moments where all else had to stop and make room for stillness and comfort and presence.

Not every moment has been easy. Some have been painful, or exhausting, or frustrating. But it’s sort of a metaphor for motherhood, isn’t it? When it’s good, it’s like magic. And when it’s hard, it’s worth it. A million times over.
