Some of motherhood is made of milestones. Most of it is made of moments no one thinks to photograph.
Welcome
There are births and birthdays here. First words and sleepless nights. Laundry mountains, bedtime negotiations, babies growing faster than they have any right to, and ordinary afternoons that somehow become sacred after they are gone.
This collection holds motherhood as it actually arrives: beautiful, exhausting, complicated, tender, loud, frightening, funny, and full of small moments that become a life.
