Where does it come from? How did you come up with this? Why is your blog title “His” Dandelion Wish? Well, let me tell ya!
Has your child ever said something to you that was so gut wrenching, eye opening, kinda want to crawl into a hole and die, life changing, but at the same time so innocent?! You see, just over two years ago I thought I was hiding all my struggles well, but my son saw right through me. And I’m forever thankful that his innocence hit me with the hardest hit.
While playing outside, he started to pull dandelions out of the ground and like most four year olds blowing so hard that the dandelion would then be covered in spit. Oh, the playful innocence. His dad was outside with him and explained that if he blew a little softer(a little less spit), made a wish, that dandelion would fly and his wish would come true.
His dandelion wish…I wish mommy was happy.
While all the things I was struggling with are completely justifiable(newly postpartum, pandemic, moving, all the lies, unfaithfulness, zero sleep, breastfeeding issues, a toddler trying to adjust to all the change, and the list goes on). My sweet boy saw me struggling. His wish! The selflessness, innocence, a heart bigger than his little body. He wished for me to be happy!
His Dandelion Wish~Is dedicated to my son, my sweet boy, the one who made me a mommy.
