zen imbecile / child = mombecile

Boy. 

You spend years working on your shit. Your insecurities, anxieties, emnities, and all the other ities you've carried around since childhood. You read and meditate. Take lots of deep breaths. Think you've got 'em licked.

And then you have a kid and they all come flooding back to you as if your ego were pregnant and its water just broke ... all over your psyche.

I was sleepy when I first saw the headline for your blog in my google homepage (I RSS feed you!). I read it as mombicle (like icicle) and thought it was going to be about being cold now that the weather changed.

...and then you read, mediate, take a deep breath again. But this time you can look into those baby eyes.
You made that life.

Amazing.


And if your emotions get the best of you, it's ok.. it's just postpartum hormonal hell. It's a bitch.
