Mother Containers

The more I grow into motherhood, the more I understand that as parents we are here to hold space~ to be containers for our children’s experiences. While the whole of this parenting journey has been utterly amazing so far, at six, there has been exponential personality development. I love watching my daughter expresses her uniqueness. Just to observe her dance feels like a revelation, as I watch her Spirit speak through her movements. I hear her stories of friendships and heartaches, and feel her struggle with learning new things. While I know that I am here to guide her, I also see how important it is, each time she finds personal victory in her own understanding of herself. When I feel the busyness and ‘to dos’ encroaching, I like to drop back. I imagine myself as a conductor. I listen to the space, the environment we are in, the tones~ of the moments we are creating together, and I remember I am a container for her. When I listen to the music of the moment, with all of its vibrations , cadence, and color, I know how to fine tune; how to adjust. How to pic up the tempo or slow things down. This is joyful, and has been one of my favorite insights as a parent so far.
