This post began as part of the Lillebaby Love Letters Application I was encouraged to write by a friend. It's turning into such a great moment of reflection. Thank you as always Lillebaby for helping me love my current role just a wee bit more! xoxox
When it comes to gifts, my husband has given me the greatest
one of all. He has blessed me with 2 amazing children, adopted my 2 older
children, AND allowed me to be a stay at home mom. He goes above and beyond
when it comes to appreciating my special role and he thanks me for all that I
do. I’m a big advocate for attachment parenting, breastfeeding, babywearing,
and my husband refers to me as the “Crunchy Mama” but he’s behind me 110% and
isn’t afraid to change a diaper, puree up some baby food, turn the garden under
so we can plant even more yummy foods next year, and yes…he even babywears. He’s
the dad babywearing at home as well as at the county fair. He can tell you the
different between a woven wrap and a soft structured carrier and he was excited
when I decided to start a local babywearing group (I think he just liked the
idea of left over cookies after the meetings). I could tell you that my
greatest gift is my children, but the even greater gift is having a loving
supportive husband who has given me the gift of time so I can enjoy our
children, nurture them, watch them grow, and be the primary person in their
world during these critical first years!
