Gosh. I relate to both the childhood moves and badge of honor feeling from it, and also the emphasis on staying rooted in one place in motherhood. I have always wondered if *my moving* as a child has influenced this feeling in parenting.
It’s funny, I actually find I’m the opposite - motherhood has made me much less rigid, and I find I keep a looser grip on everything knowing that change is always up ahead. I feel a lot more equipped for it now, if that makes sense?
That’s really funny, maybe it just brought out the opposite trait in us based on how we were originally :) I don’t know about you, but motherhood has changed me more than any other season of life, in the best way.
