Freedom

Posted in On Being a Mom and a Wife

"As I sat in the grey bathrobe four babies had nestled against

while they nursed, my brain started clanging this jubilant message:  There are no shackles in this house, this is no jail. 

These kids are your ticket to freedom like nothing you have ever tasted, the kind that is not hinged on TV appearances or

writing for Life magazine or being a size six again. 

It's the liberation that comes from the sheer act of living itself. 

When you stop to be where you are, then your life can really begin."
