What Having Children Means
One’s relationships with one’s children are an important growth phase in the life of the parent. Essentially one lives one’s life over from one’s infancy in raising a child from babyhood. It is quite a blissful feeling, knowing that one crawled like that once upon a time, that one took those first faltering steps and touched a flower with such wonderment. It is just as pleasing to realize that one crossed road alone for the first time long ago, went to the shops with friends for the first time, cycled across the town for the first time, fell in love the first time. Living with one’s child, experiencing everything they experience, is nothing short of an affirmation of one’s own life.
