Ah, yes...almost two months have passed since writing in this space. The reality of mothering is that time has changed forever. It's not that inspired moments have not occurred, but the time to reflect on and write about them have not.
It is certainly living in the present moment and breating in the impermanence of all that is....my little boy of a few months ago is sprouting muscles and doing better at finding his way without me.
This summer he has learned to swim and ride a bike without training wheels. His need for physical supports are lessening as he experiences more trust in his ability to be balanced or held by the water. My prayer is that his trust grows as he rests and runs in this greater world.
I welcome these new accomplishments and celebrate with him his joy and pride in these new ways of being in motion in the world.
