How beautiful to have this space be a tribute to P&S. I've loved all the newsletters, but this one in particular as you say, truly gave me the words to tell my own story. I'm two weeks into my new Stay at Home Mom Life and am pleasantly surprised to report that I did not experience the massive identity crisis that I had anticipated. I couldn't quite put my finger on the what exactly I've been feeling until I read this entry and gasped.
It's PRIDE.
I'm so proud to be present for my littles and care for them with my best energy and biggest heart. It is a sated pride that I never experienced in the workplace, which is probably why I could not articulate it!
Thank you, Olivia, for giving me the words and for continuing to give visibility and framing to these universal experiences.
Congratulations on this new chapter. When I read the "Welcome to...", I immediately thought it sounded like a novel, too. Thanks for continuing to share your perspective with us!
Oh, I love this so much! I love how P expresses herself and those middle names!? You are my people! (And I need to see a picture of D with a beard!!! LOL)
