A few words about who I am, and how I came to see the world this way.
I am a mother of two girls.
They experience the world a little differently, and raising them has changed the way I see almost everything — attention, emotion, learning, and what it means to grow.
My days are often messy.
There is noise, arguing, unfinished routines, and moments when none of us quite know what to do next.
There is also laughter, small progress, and quiet moments that feel unexpectedly full.
I worry about many things — how they eat, how they sleep, how they learn, how they find their place among other children, and what their lives might look like one day.
These thoughts stay with me more than I would like.
And yet, I am learning.
Slowly, imperfectly, but genuinely.
At the same time, the world around us is changing.
Children are growing up with tools and possibilities that did not exist before.
I don’t write to explain these changes.
I am trying to understand them — as a mother, watching from very close.
This space is where I keep those moments.
Not conclusions.
Not answers.
Just what I see, what I feel, and what I am learning along the way.
Mom.
