Your essay is beautifully written--I can't imagine how much anxiety you must have felt over your son! God is truly amazing.

This line also really resonated with me: "I had to come to see that motherhood is full of seasons, and in certain seasons our abilities will look different. It took years to come to terms with this and to stop relating my goodness with the cleanliness and order of my home." I need this reminder so often!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Kristin! I feel like that reminder is on repeat in my head most days--learning to trust God with what “enough” looks like in this season.

I LOVED the Close Reads podcast conversations on Diary Of A Country Priest. Seriously would have missed so much of the symbolism and depth without it. (Their podcasts chats about books are always like listening in on a lively Literature class at University or something. haha)

I’m listening through those episodes right now!! I love that podcast so much; like you said, I would have missed a lot without their conversations. I’m constantly amazed at how other people see these things in books and I utterly miss them 🙈
