Bliss

Finally a blog. I am just discovering them. I like the thought of a forum to explore life's challenges and routines. As an "older" mom I thought a blog would give me a place to collect my thoughts about the unique position I'm in.

My daughter, Leah, is 6. Seven next month. I am 51.

I have always been behind the curve, a slow starter. I hate that about me. I overthink everything which delays decisionmaking. By the time I realized I was getting a late start on motherhood, I spent too much time weighing my options and before I knew it, I was 44. I know most days I'm just a mom but at least once a week I'm painfully aware that I should really be Leah's grandmother!

Maybe it's not about starting slow but knowing organically that good things (the best, really) take time. . .
