@imbethmccoll You could also make the correlation of Dumbo thinking the feather helps them fly when in fact they had the power within them all along . 🤷♀️
@imbethmccoll It’s the idea that as mothers, we instinctively want to be there to protect our daughters & catch them if they fall, knowing how women are treated, especially when they are independent & don’t fit in a box of some people’s expectations but need to let them walk their own path…
I remember reading somewhere that parents typically experience child-related night wakings regularly for 6 years post-birth. Six years.
Considering that my 4.5yo had a one-sided convo with me about caterpillars at 3:00am, I am sorry to report that this factoid appears true.
@ShannonJCurtin THANK YOU for this. I have been going through this with my 4.5 year old and I didn’t know it was common and that makes me feel so much better. 😩
