Letting go

Thinking of all my friends whose babies are starting school tomorrow (or who started today). Some of us are letting our first babies go and I know some who are letting their last go. Parenthood is just a series of moments of letting go and then holding tight when they need us, from the moment they leave our wombs. Ups and downs. Joys and sadnesses. Reminds me of Kahlil Gibran when he talks about how the depth of such sadness is proportionate to how deeply we love. How lucky we are to love so greatly. I know I'll be crying tomorrow. ❤️
