graduation

[saltydogsal]

I've been a parent for 18 years. And something about being young when I started makes me crave validation. Tonight I officiated graduation, as I do every year, for 2000 other people's babies. It broke my validation-seeking, young mom heart to do it knowing I will never get tpo be the proud mom. No way C is going to sit through a graduation

awww, but you can write really good! You can take this sentiment and just wield it into something, I dunno, true and sharing.

I think/hope, their will be validation coming up still in your mama journey. (sometimes stuff happens when you least expect it; and not always on time) Just not all of us are the type who get graduations, and stuff like that.

(like me: never graduate from nothing, no prom, no marriage, no baby shower, just ...none of anything that most people celebrate mark changes and achievements with.)

I would totally have thrown a kick-ass baby shower for you.
