People.
I’m kinda sorta freaking out over here. TC hates when I use freaking in any given conversational context. To that I say, deal with it.
FOH is quickly approaching THE year mark. HOW has this happened?
How is my not so little little baby no longer a baby baby? Did you catch that? Good.
Where in the F has this year gone? How is any of this possible?
What does this mean for the future?
Having my own childhood stare me down this week with Maman has been a sobering experience. One that is more than a little trippy, given that I now have my own child.
Once again I am pretty much dumbfounded, that here I am. An adult. Of sorts. I have to add, of sorts, because nothing about me feels at all adult and the fact that I am now financially and physically responsible for another human is beyond my comprehension.
Until said adorable little human cries or laughs or has a blow out and I’m brought back to my present reality.
Having a child makes you realize how damn fast time really does go and begs the question of:
What are you doing?
The, what the f are you doing, is perpetually staring me down. I didn’t know questions had eyes that could stare you down, but they do — in the form of your kid.
The Truth is: sometimes I don’t know what the hell I’m doing, People. I’m just trying to be a good person. A loving person.
I’m trying my absolute Gdammedest to love the shit out of you guys. That’s really my only goal day in and day out: to love.
I trust that from there, everything else? It’ll just … come.
