Growing

Emilia and Me
For the kickass women of the world.
Those that are, and those that are growing up to be.
The daughters. The mothers. The sisters.
The fribblings – friends like siblings.
The wives, The girlfriends.
The aunts. The nieces.
The grand-somethings.
The young uns. The teens.
The women in your life.
Who love, lose, cry.
Laugh, heal, thrive.
Nurture. Create.
You.Are.Amazing.
As. You.are
Stronger than you know.
More beautiful than you think.
Worthier than you believe.
More loved than you can ever imagine.
Passionate above making a difference.
Fioery when protecting those you love.
Learning. Growing, Not alone.
Warm. Giving. Generous.
Quirky, Sexy, Funny. Smart.
Flawed. Whole. Scared. Brave.
And so, so, so. much.more
Be Strong. Be Confident. Be You.

There might be a bit more of that kind of stuff around here. Hope you don’t mind. Mothering a daughter has brought out the feisty woman-lover in me. And for the record, it’s not that I don’t love men. I do. I love them to bits actually. But girls, we have so much work to do in the learning and self-loving to make sure we etch out a space in this world to talk about how we want things to be. 
This is my beginning.

Oh Clare, all power to you, my friend. I love her mothering changes us in ways we never anticipate. Can't wait to read more. J x
