One month with Rory 💙

I remember feeling the stresses of this chapter so acutely as a first-time mom, consumed by 2 a.m. Google searches and wondering when (if?) I’d ever feel like myself again. It’s not that this phase is any less exhausting the fourth time around, but I feel like each age of our children’s lives reveals a slightly more capable, slightly more confident version of me who’s better able to rise to the occasion for the various triumphs and challenges each chapter of motherhood has in store.

I feel so intent on relishing this little newborn bubble where the rest of the world fades away a little bit and life is so singularly focused on meeting the needs of this teeny tiny new miracle and his three older brothers. There are things I love and treasure about every age we’ve experienced so far, but these slow days and long nights with our children as newborns hold such a special place in my heart.

I wish I could go back and relive that first newborn chapter with the perspective of a fourth-time mom, but I can only try to reassure any of you who find yourselves in the thick of it. I’ll tell you what I think I most needed to hear then: you are doing a great job; you are exactly the mom your little one needs; it feels hard because it is hard; and just you wait: everything is going to be so much more than okay. 🫶🏼
