:: a motherhood moment

I just had a motherhood moment. You know…the kind when you’re crying over a pot of spaghetti before you know what hit you.

I have a feeling that down the road these will be some of the days I miss the most. Making spaghetti for my family. My mom’s recipe. The same spaghetti we ate after countless basketball practices and for birthday parties. Lucy babbling and banging measuring cups beside me. Ellie riding her imaginary horse around the house, neighing at the top of her lungs. Music in the background and windows open to the fall air.

These are the golden moments. The kind that create an overwhelming gratitude for getting to be a mother. What a crazy and beautiful gift.
