Grief, Motherhood, & Birthday Wishes
Breathing Life into a Wished-For Earth
Today is my 36th birthday and I am 36 weeks pregnant. My first child is due in 28 days, on February 28th, and I became pregnant at the same age my mother was when she had me. Throughout my pregnancy I have found myself sometimes wishing I had started having kids younger— wanting to ensure I can give my youthful energy to my children. But today, these synchronistic signs from the universe have my full attention.
