As plans often do, my October weekend marathon of sessions turned into a quieter Saturday with three lovely sessions in the morning. We took our time, chatting and styling each of the mamas and reveling in the stillness of the rainy morning. I enjoy making connections with each mama, finding common acquaintances, sharing interests and of course, discussing motherhood and all that it entails.

“Motherhood, to me, is ever-changing. It’s growing – quite literally. Growing little humans then feeling your heart grow out of your chest. It’s learning. Learning how to adapt to every single possible situation, and with that soaking up daily lessons from the tiny humans you’ve somehow created. It’s forgiving. Forgiving yourself for not being perfect for them, and also learning to move on gracefully from the million little mishaps you will deal with in a day. Motherhood is messy and beautiful, raw and magical. Motherhood to me, is them – and motherhood is all of me.”

“Motherhood to me, is the truest and strongest form of love that one can feel.”
