I had been inviting Aunt Myra over lots and lots. I know how painful being a middle Mom is and

just wanted to keep inviting her. Knowing kids are safe and loved goes a long way but missing

them is painful. I knew when she was ready to see baby in his new space she’d come. This little guy was SO happy to see her! And we enjoyed getting to know her more. He was tucked out after playing hard and having an exiting visit. I let Myra know she could take all the time she needed. Loss is hard to process. As is guilt. Both are prevalent emotions for Middle Moms. Emotions I know far too well. We hope to see lots more of her and her kiddos when she’s ready.
