We are Learning... All of us!

For the first time, maybe ever, I won’t be flipping the toilet paper 🧻 roll to the “correct” position... bc it was CG’s first time ever getting the new roll fully on. A proud moment for my baby book. 😂

But really, it is.

She’s doing the most amazing magical things and it’s like when/how/what... omg... this growing up thing is happening fast. Like sounding out words and starting to read and singing all the lyrics to Pointer Sister Songs and her runway walk is already iconic.

Tonight I was on the phone with my Grandma Florrey, who said she’ll be folding laundry with me soon and it won’t be the way I would do it and that’s ok. And I thought yes, it will be...

All the while knowing I’m a champion laundry folder and dishwasher loader and I go behind people like a stealthy ninja redoing that shit. And I’ll admit it, I flip TP rolls at other peoples houses. 🤷‍♀️

So seeing this roll tonight, after that convo. As out of my comfort zone as this is, I’m going to work through it. I know there’s someone out there that gets it.

I may flip it when I’m sleep peeing and then have to flip it back again tomorrow morning before she sees it.

But, we’ll get there.

I don’t want to project my way on her. I have to accept that this may be her way. Wow! 🤣😅 That may actually happen. She may even start flipping my rolls to this. Deep breath.

I mean... I never thought I would eat a cupcake bottom after the icing was licked off by a little germ ball... but we’re all about sharing and teamwork.

Sometimes this is what a personal development journey looks like. 😂 it’s true.

Our little teachers. Rocking the boat. Dismantling the ways things have always been done. Challenging us to let it go and reminding us what really matters.

I put this on a post-it, in my bathroom, “We are learning. All of us.” It’s been a beautiful gentle reminder spilling out into so many areas. 🙏 Sharing it with love, as you may too find it supportive.
