Thanks Julie, for your comment. I’m glad you liked the mosaic metaphor. It took me a while to finally see the beauty in the crumbled pieces that I’ve been putting back together and as with everything in motherhood, it’s a work in progress. Michele

I’m 42, a mother of 4 trying to figure out how to put those crumbled pieces back together to make something beautiful again…I finally have a little time to figure out who I am again…definitely not the same person I was 4 babies ago…hoping I’m better! Thanks for the mosaic metaphor…can’t WAIT for the movie!

I love the statement “my work fits into my life”…that is how I have been feeling, and trying to figure out why I don’t have the drive to get to the top like I did in my 20’s…change in priority. My new life put together in a new way…love it!!

Thanks for the post!

It could be the hormones (as my 3rd baby is only 3 weeks old!) but this brought tears to my eyes and gave me goosebumps. Well done, Mama!

This is a great post Michele. I definitely think that being a mom has helped me to grow as an individual. (I hope so anyway!)

Beautiful post, Michele, and the movie looks like fun! I think as my kids get a little older I’m slowly rediscovering more bits of myself.
