When they were babies, we struggled with sleep schedules and teething, eating and utter exhaustion. Everyone always said, little kid, little problems-big kids, big problems.By no means are my kids big, but I see things changing for them and for me. I see so much of myself in my eldest and I empathise on all the feelings she is facing. At the same time I hope I’m not projecting my own under confidence, anxiety and fears I felt as a little girl. Today Nell was paralysed by fear, but she pushed through and at the end of the day she said "mom, in the end I was ok". Growing up is complicated for both kids and parents, we are always learning more about ourselves in the process. #vacationmusings #parenthood #raisinggirls #anxietyisreal
