[quote=Anonymous]Think back to a truly happy moment with your small child. A peaceful, loving, laughing time together. When an older mom witnesses those moments, she "gets" that they are all behind her. She does not believe every day of young parenting was like that. She does not think she will have no other sources of happiness in her future. But she is wistful about that very unique/special love/bond that parents and young children share. You still have it. She cannot help but share how lucky that makes you. You can try to let that sink in, and perhaps savor the joyful moments of parenting a bit more. OR you can growl, "But he spilled his cheerios on the floor this morning." Either way, the older mom means no harm, Jeez.[/quote]
