The First Step
“My precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.”
As parents we nurture our children and hope that they grow to be healthy and happy. Day to day we carry them through life, acting as stabilizers and eventually acknowledging that we have to let them walk tall in whichever direction they choose. It is easy to be preoccupied with the bad times or the next exciting big step and forget that the little steps are there to be remembered too. As such, this blog documents the stepping stones, big and small, that make up the paths of our child’s/children’s lives. After all, it’s the journey that matters, not where you are going to.
