“Mother is the home we come from. She is nature, soil, ocean.” - Erich Fromm, “The Art of Loving”
Every one of us came from our first home in a mother’s womb. Recently, Andres and Levin were talking about me giving birth to him. Levin asked “Did it hurt Mama when I came out?” Thoughtful, concerned boy. 🥹 Yes, of course, it did, but I’d do it all over again to have him and Joseph. All of us mothers would for our babies. Happy Mother’s Day to the sleep-deprived moms, the moms learning who they are after their babies have grown, and to all the moms in between. 🌷
