God is the madwoman in the attic.
I'm camped out on the threshold with my journal, camera, and plenty of snacks.

gratitude

Baby N is one month old. I'm starting to find a rhythm to our days and gradually adjusting to motherhood. Baby N is doing wonderfully. He seemingly has no idea how clumsy and imperfect I am.

I am so grateful for all the help I've been given in learning how to care for him, how to become a mother, how to take care of myself. I felt so lost and overwhelmed in the first week, especially. It's L's love & devotion, the generosity & time of friends, and the commitment of my family that has carried me here and taught me what I need to know to continue.

Thank you.
