Lovely thoughts, Marisa.,as you cope with 4am wakefulness. The smile of your baby is so special. Thank you for those thoughts. They bring back memories

“You’ve got to make space for all there is to come, he seems to be saying. And just wait till you see what it is.” Oooft, yes.

Love the way you arrange words Marisa, and what the words say too, of course. And yes, I wish more was written about the relationship side of early motherhood (maybe it is? Maybe I’m not brave enough to look for it?)

Loving (very slowing) reading Baby on the Fire Escape. Have highlighted so much on my kindle.

Anyway, have really enjoyed reading WAW, especially the motherhood pieces. There’s so much I want to say and write about it all, but for now my words live in my notes and I will read yours instead! Wishing you a cosy, restful festive period xx
