    This was so beautiful, Lynn. I can relate so much—I too am a “high needs mom” and luckily, after a couple of years and only one child (by choice), I was able to get back to taking care of myself. But doesn’t it seem that no matter how well we mother, guilt finds us. I wonder if fathers ever feel the same thing. I can’t imagine what that would be like. I try to tell myself that the guilt drives positive action on my part, but sometimes all it does is back me in a corner, crippled with anxiety and the feeling that I’ll never get it right or right enough.

    And one of the best parts of your piece—your picture where I saw your nose-lip crease! Yay! We also have Unitarian church experience in common. That place had fed my soul like no other church I’ve attended.

    Take care!
    Kelly

    Kelly, thank you so much! I LOVE LOVE LOVE hearing from other moms who can relate to this. I’m actually about to post another entry on self-care. I so relate to your comment.

    And yay nose-lip creases! I have always been bothered by mine. It helps to have a growing nose-lip crease community for support. Haha.

    Take good care,
    Lynn
