I thought of this poem today when I read this post. It is good for all mothers but particularly youself. I am only giving you the last stanza of it, so you can google the rest of it as it is lovely.

“Song for a Fifth Child”
By Ruth Hulburt Hamilton

“The cleaning and scrubbing will wait till tomorrow,
for children grow up, as I’ve learned to my sorrow.
So quiet down, cobwebs. Dust go to sleep.
I’m rocking my baby and babies don’t keep.”

Perspective helps us realize that especially in the darkest hours, angels are in our midst, and in our arms.

You are beautiful, and we don’t need a blog conference to be BFF’s. (But there WILL be a conference, and gosh darn it, everyone better be there!)

Sometimes, no matter how hard we try, it is not enough. You are trying valiantly to keep everything normal. Keep up with all the normalcy of a family and the responsibilities that go with it. But you carry an additional burden. The precious life of your youngest child hangs in the balance. If not for you, he would not only NOT be the fabulous kid he is, he probably would not even be here in our mortal world. That is the type of worry most of us cannot even fathom. It’s our greatest fear! I am so sorry it is weighing you down. Just know that you are a hero. The best of the best. Something the rest of us aspire to. We love you!!!!
