I wept the other night after seeing ‘Trump’ on a manatee (an animal I love). Unfortunately, my 6 month old and 4 year old were also having rough nights and needed Mama. But I let myself sit in my sadness. I told my 4 year old that Mama’s get sad about the world. She told me she loves me and that i’m the best Mama and that ‘things will be better in the morning’ and yesterday the sun was out (finally…in MN) and my girls were back to their happy selves and i’m just leaning into them and appreciating what a beautiful, fleeting time this is in our lives. And in the back of my head trying to come up with ways I can be more of an activist while also resting in the activism I do in my home, and in my own circle. Also lattes and chocolate spark joy. Always.
