A symphony of breaths
This #thankyouthursday, I am grateful for a symphony of breaths.
I wake up multiple times each night these days, which is an expected aspect of life with an infant and also a challenging one.
Waking repeatedly means repeatedly going back to sleep, and to do that, I listen to my family breathe. Three distinctive rise-and-falls make up a ragged symphony. Three overlapping sets of sighs and snores; incomparable music to my exhausted ears.
I won’t always hear a symphony of breaths in the middle of the night. Sometimes I’m grateful for that, too.
Love > fear,
Christina
