I love this perspective from a mom further along than me. I think as a mom of littles, I can start to think, "Once they reach X age/stage, then I won't worry as much anymore..." but you're right that there will always be times when we want to have that control and it will be out of our hands, and we will need to surrender them to our good and kind God. It's never a one-and-done, but a constant (sometimes daily or hourly!) process.
