There isn’t one passive bone in her body. In fa

There isn’t one passive bone in her body.

In fact, I spend most of my day negotiating why she needs to do any given task
and she spends most of her day arguing or ignoring it.

I ask her not to do something and she has already figured out ten different ways that she can.

Each day is filled with big emotions.

When she is angry, you know it.

When she is happy, you know it.

She has absolutely no filter and says exactly what is on her mind.

Which has led to me having to bite my cheeks to suppress my laughter on more than one occasion.

Everything is on her terms, on her time, her agenda.

She does not care that she has an appointment in 10 minutes. She will let you know when and if she is available.

Most nights after I put her to bed, I plop down on the couch utterly and completely down to the bone exhausted.

Sometimes I wonder why she can’t be more agreeable. Why things can’t be easier.

I keep clinging to the words of fellow mothers of strong-willed children who look back on it all and whisper “I know this is hard now, but it is worth it.”

Deep down even on my most exhausted days I know I wouldn’t change her.

I won’t ask her to be anything other than what she is because I would miss out on all of her.

I would miss out on her big love, her loud joy, her mischievous grin.

I would miss out on her quick wit and her larger-than-life attitude.

I know that the world needs her fight, her vivacious spirit.

And one day when she is grown, I will catch sight of a mom struggling to keep her patience with her strong-willed child who will likely have their arms crossed, determination on their face, a hint of mischief in their eye.

I will place an encouraging hand on that mom’s shoulder and whisper...

I know this is hard now, but it is worth it.

My 5-year-old was having a moment, so I took my hand, and started plucking the air around her . . .

Of course she stopped the meltdown to ask what I was doing…

“Shh, sit really still . . . they’re all over you” . . . I said, staying focused.

“What’s all over me?” She asked, almost forgetting why she was upset.

“The grouchies!” I continued . . . “We’ve got to get them off you!!”

At this point she realized that I was being silly and she started laughing.

“No those aren’t grouchies, they’re HAPPIES!!” She said.

“Oh good!” I said, putting one back and plucking other spots.

“No that’s not a grouchy either!!”

“Are they all gone?!” I asked.

“Yes!” She said laughing.

“I want a hug.” She said.

Sometimes we can shift the tone of the moment through play and connection . . . not always, and I promise I know it’s not easy, especially when you’re tired & frustrated . . . but, it's worth it when it works.

You become a soft spot to land after the big emotions pass.

So next time your little one starts spiraling, try plucking those grouchies away.

I hold space for my own doctors who had cared for

I hold space for my own doctors who had cared for me throughout my entire pregnancy. How they visited me in the hospital room, sharing the weight of my grief. They sat by my side, honoring the emptiness, the broken dream. Holding my hand, they mourned our loss alongside me.
