It's their childhood,
not mine.
I'm raising children in a world full of uncertainties.
A pandemic,
The threat of war,
Terrible economic times.
I will love them through it all.
Through every formula shortage.
Through every illness that goes through our home.
Through every tantrum,
Through every meal they choose not to eat.
I will cherish every snuggle,
Every "Just one more story mama."
Every early morning and late night wakeups.
Even when mama is tired, she still gets up and tries to create magic.
I hope they remember that.
Because my motherhood is their childhood.
Even if they don't remember, I will.

10 Lessons from Sarah J. Maas
"You learn to write by reading the writers you love." I recently took this course by Damien Walter! I wanted to share with you all what I took away from the course, and to share my thoughts on writing fantasy. He did an analysis on the opening chapter of A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas and I have a new set of lenses while I am reading. I was inspired by previous Udemy post to create this one on this specific course.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.
