I see more than glimpses of this now, Tilly, with my kids- especially my 12-year old daughter who is so grounded and kind hearted. I appreciate the reminder and your example!

My kids are older and out in the world. They circle back now as friends, and though it was often exhausting to parent, make art, and work, I am so thankful for the investment of time with them. The payback is wonderful.

You have an uncanny habit of writing what I need to read when I need to read it. My partner and I have been doubting lately whether or not we want kids…. While I can’t imagine my life now with them, I can’t imagine growing old without them. Thanks for your words.

Beautiful, and for me, very true, too. Thank you.

[…] It’s quiet in here this morning. Earlier, as I lay in bed and was going through email messages on my smart phone and started link hopping, I eventually arrived at this post. […]

Good on him, Jen and good on you all! the village is going ok then Its heartening to know that they dont bring everything into the being, they can distance some things and not be crushed by them… good on you nature spirits, keeping us in perspective!

Ah, thank you, Tilly. And I’d happily join you at any 3 am in the morning for mutual support and tea!

Your timing is spot on, Jennifer. I was just having an afternoon where I was thinking, I do feel beloved, and in the hearts of many, but also feeling really alone just now. You aren’t close enough to lay hands, but your words have a touch of their own. Thank you!
