The Space Between

Many years ago when I started this blog, I originally called it "The Space Between."  It was envisioned to be the space between who I was as a Mama and who I was as a 'me.'  Instead, it became a space that reflected almost purely the Mama-side of me.  For lots of reasons, that side of me is subsiding and the old me is lunging forward.  Who knows what this will mean for the mama-side of me.  It still presses forward, wanting to blog here with snapshots of growing children, sad that my thoughts and days no longer rest only upon them.  But, for so long I have only managed to be one or the other.  I hope to figure out a way to exist in the space between.  Early on in the journey of mothering these three, I knew this was for the best.  I just need to remember that instinct as I move out of the world of black and white, into the grey - the space between.
