Another milestone : January 19, 2016

I can't even begin to imagine where the past 17 years have gone. It seems like I blinked and this precious newborn is now nearly a grown man. He came into the world at 5:59am after an intense and short labour. The moment I looked into his face I could tell he was an old soul and would teach me far more then I could imagine.  I feel like we have been through many lifetimes together. It's not been an easy go for him but, he's beginning to find his footing and I just feel so blessed to have him. He is so much like me and I understand on a deep level some of what he goes through. Some days it's sheer torture to feel how unkind this world can be. The struggle is to be able to look through the pain and darkness and find the light. After all, we are just walking each other home.
