These 3 months have been exhausting and amazing.
Stressful and beautiful.
When I hold Solari I can actually feel my heart expanding and there’s nothing that compares to holding a new baby, made of pure LOVE.
For the first several weeks, I would occasionally wonder why I would choose to have another baby, now that my kids are finally in school, and sleep through the night, and are at an age (6 and 7 years old) where essentially I am FREE (or would have been if I didn’t have a baby!) but now I’m back at square ONE. After raising two babies to school-age children, I am back to changing diapers, nursing through the night, the endless cycle of cloth diaper laundry. I’m usually exhausted, and sometimes scrambling to find childcare when I go to teach yoga or dance.
Well....Solari is three months today (!), and his whole-face smiles and baby giggles completely take over those wondering thoughts, and I know there is a reason he is here and that we chose each other, at this exact time.
