A neighbor told me when I had a newborn — ‘oh they get so much easier at four!’ And I was like IN FOUR YEARS!!! But truly this overwhelming letting go lets up a lot over time. You are IN IT. But things change also.
And, also, bigger kids bigger problems that are their own thing, but I can’t honestly remember how we survived the sleep deprived torture that was the first year sometimes
