We had a good run.
After 16 months of nursing, Mara and I are moving on. It was, to be honest, an awkward parting. Just one or two times that Mara didnt feel like it, and away the milk went. It had only been in the morning and at night for a few months towards the end anyways. She asked a few times after that and I told her it was all gone and she would settle back down.
It's an odd thing to think about. It means I could leave her for an extended period of time and she wouldnt need me, at least in that way. Parting is such sweet sorrow, but it was a timely one. She's growing up SO MUCH.
To go from something that was such a struggle for us, to now thinking of those time with a bit of nostalgia.....
ah, such is life.
Much Love,
Mother Of Mara
