We Learn
As a woman, as a mother and as friends
we learn that being a mother is not what
we thought it would be like when we were kids.
We learn that life is messy and that there isn't
any one right way or unforgivable mistake.
That we can celebrate our children being brave
and daring and be afraid for them at the time.
We learn not to blink in the face of attitudes
that we can be the "meany" and still keep our hearts open.
We learn from each other that we're not alone
and that we're not going crazy.
And we learn that we never stop learning with
every new day, we laugh and we learn.
