Dear 2020 baby (and their parents)
Thank you.
Thank you for choosing this year. Thank you for being a blessing to this uncertain world.
Maybe it’s not the pregnancy you thought it would be. Maybe it wasn’t the birth you had hoped for. Maybe your postpartum was different than you expected. But you’re living through the grief and facing the challenging transitions. Thank you for hope.
You are the light in the darkness, the peace in the chaos and the desire in the unknown. Thank you for your spirit.
Thank you for my deeper sense of gratitude. Thank you for trusting me. Thank you for trusting your new parents to know what’s best for you cause they are the perfect parent for you. Thank you for the smiles amongst the masks, the tears behind the texts and the unconditional love.
Thank you 2020 for giving us you.
