My brilliant, professional friend Shelly said ALMOST the same thing you did when leaving the hospital with her firstborn (and only) child. Instead, she said, "They should have called security."

I love this so much that I restacked it! But not here…. In my Sunday School class at church. Everyone in the class has grown children and grandchildren. They appreciated every one of those steps. Happy Mother’s Day to you!

You are welcome! We usually open the class with a few jokes and had some ready. But these lessons were meaningful and appreciated.

I don’t have children, but I recognize good mothering when I hear about it or see it. And it makes my heart sing to see what attunement and the nurturing of secure attachment looks like in actions. Thank you for sharing these beautiful words.
