It isn’t her fault, and you know that. I know it’s hard, you don’t have any space and the space you try to create somehow gets absorbed by them too. This is a season Anne, it will pass. Things will come and go.
You need to have grace, with them and with yourself. They want to please you, they want you to be happy. Their mistakes are just that. They don’t want to hurt you, they just want to love you.
And love to them means wrapping themselves up in every part of you and feeling safe.
Conversations with Mom
And love to them means wrapping themselves up in every part of you and feeling safe. Because even in those hard moments, you are still their safe place. The place they want to be, entirely.
You Anne, are their home. Bask in it.
Love you, Mom
