Have you ever looked at your growing children and wished that time would just slow down? That's exactly where I found myself recently, gazing at my six-year-old daughter thinking, "I had you just yesterday." This feeling intensified with my third baby, Henry—our family's "last puzzle piece"—and triggered a profound reflection on time and presence in motherhood.
Time moves relentlessly forward, and as mothers, we often find ourselves caught between celebrating growth and mourning stages that have passed. But what if our preoccupation with slowing down actually prevents us from fully experiencing the present?
In today's episode, I chat through how I've come to see our family not as a static image but as an ever-evolving puzzle—the picture constantly changing as my children grow and as I transform as their mother.
