Sometimes there just are no words. As moms (and dads), there is a thread of connection and understanding that binds us all, no matter if our kids are at preschool on the Upper East Side of NYC or learning how to count in a partially-thatched mud hut in Zimbabwe.
There are no words to describe unspeakable loss and grief that can ravage a parent’s core, just as there is no truly adequate language to cover the heart-wrenching love and joy we feel as we watch our babies’ tiny chests rise and fall with every breath (even if that ‘baby’ is now 17).
So, in the midst of the fafillions of items on our to-do lists and the hustle-and-bustle that invariably accompanies the holidays, we wish you treasured moments. Moments in time during which you soak in everything that’s precious. All of the instants that are full of so much love that trying to express them in words couldn’t possibly do them justice.
Wishing our community a joyful, peaceful, healthy and loving holiday season – from our hearts to yours,
