“I also am trying to remind myself that there are still many great and exciting things ahead with bigger kids.” Ooof! I was JUST thinking about this. I was getting weepy thinking about how I only have one more month of being a “preschool mom.” Pretty soon, that stage will be totally over. I get emotional thinking about that. But you’re right, there’s so many exciting moments ahead and I DO love watching them grow. But I’m still really going to miss this stage. Anyway, loved reading your interview and the reflection it inspired!

I am going to miss this stage too. :(
Yes! There's such a tension here. I love what Stacy shared.
Loved reading this!!
Me, too! I loved Stacy’s reflection—so relatable.
