Not to be dramatic but I will never apologise for this. 🤍
Yes motherhood is my whole personality right now.
Yes I talk about Tavi constantly.
Yes my content is about her and my recovery and this season and the things nobody warned me about.
Yes if you ask me what I’ve been up to the answer is going to involve a baby.
And I am completely at peace with that.
Because I know something now that I didn’t know before she arrived.
This season is finite.
One day she will need me less.
One day she will have her own world that doesn’t revolve entirely around mine.
One day I will have space to rediscover the parts of myself that existed before her and figure out who they are now that she’s changed everything.
But today is not that day.
Today she is little and the days are long and she wants me specifically and I am choosing to be here for all of it without one foot already out the door looking for the next version of myself.
The woman I was before Tavi was enough.
And she will be there waiting on the other side of this season — changed and deepened and more herself than she ever was before.
But right now I am a mother first and everything else can wait.
And I have never been more proud of anything in my life. 💛
