The truth of the matter is that, as a Mom, I worked myself out of a job.
They will always need my love. And I theirs. But they don’t need me. And there is a grief there that is true. Over the loss of identity.
I don’t regret building my life around them. If I had it to do over again, I wouldn’t change a thing. But it's time to both acknowledge the impact I've had on my kids and to pick a new focus.
