Guest Post: Shifting Seasons

March 13, 2018

Hi friends! I’m excited to share with you my latest piece for Red Tent Living. This month, their theme is, “Is This Life?”
What a big question. Here’s where it took me . . .

Shifting Seasons

I’m finding myself in a strange sort of liminal space as I await the birth of my daughter. She’s with us, but not quite here. We’re standing at the threshold of what will be, counting down the days until we can fully step into this new season of life.

Sure, there are things we need to complete as we prepare for her arrival, but what we find ourselves doing more than anything else is waiting. I look ahead, wondering who she will be and what she will look like, but I also spend a lot of time looking back. Somehow, two months away from becoming a mom, my own childhood feels closer than ever.

It’s been a difficult winter for my dad. Nothing major, thankfully, but it seems like every time I talk to my parents, they’re on their way to another doctor’s appointment. They’ll contact me when they have some answers, and my first follow-up question is typically, “Why is this happening?”

To read the rest of this post, head on over to Red Tent Living.
