So you know parenting is a very intimate and amazing experience and one of the best experiences of my life.
In truth I am a single mother. But I don't feel alone at all in parenting my daughter. Krishna has a whole other side of her family who loves her too. And so Krishna is parented by me but also by her grandmother and aunts and cousins and uncles and friends.
Parenting is an impossible job at any age.
I hope to find the roles that are age appropriate but not yearning to be younger or parenting ad nauseam.
Of course the ideal scenario for parenting is obviously two parents of a mature age.
Each sudden gust of light explains itself as flames but neither they nor even bombs redoubled on the hills tonight can quite include me in their fear.
