A few weeks ago, a gathering was enjoyed in anticipation of a new spring babe coming any day now. For the mama and her dearest friends, tea and our best wishes were shared as she enters motherhood of two. I entered this journey with her, when our firsts were just five and seven weeks old. Four years later, we still share all that we learn about each new phase. She listens. She supports. She shares her wealth of knowledge. One of the women at this gathering expressed gratitude in that she feels that she is a better mother because of her. I couldn't agree more.
The 'game' was to name the baby. Each shared her favorites and we managed to narrow the list down to two. The 'gift' was a lavender sachet to match the tea of choice to take home.
Now, we simply await the arrival and chance to gather once again!
