This little tyke here is wonderful. He’s also way more energetic that I can keep up with. In pre-pandemic life, he would have preschool and soccer and **structure.** ⁣ Three is hard. It’s hard even when you have every thing in place to channel their big emotions and big energies. Three is also magical. Sure, you may not see the magic when you’ve spent an hour arguing about why you can’t wear the same pjs all day long, everyday (said argument took place right after I snapped this pic). ⁣ You’ll see the magic when you least expect it, while you’re harried and feeling so tired. They’ll come up to you unexpectedly and say something soul-reviving like “you’re my best mom.” ⁣ Wishing you (and us here) lots of soul-reviving moments this week. #parenting #parenthood #parentingjourney #bedeeplyrooted #holdthemoments #inbeautyandchaos #momofboys #boymom
