While downsizing in preparation for a move, Karen found two large plastic bins full of baby clothes.
Sitting on the floor, clothes all around, I felt a strong sense of nostalgia and an overwhelming love for my kids.
AdvertisementThe early days of motherhood are uniqueIn those early days, when they were completely bound to me, I bonded with them in such an intense way, present for them at every moment.
Normally, I'm not sentimental, but those early days of motherhood are unique.
I'll never have another human being attached to me, like when my kids were babies, and their clothes represented that for me.
