This is a beautifully written piece that brings comforting insights into a classic story and is encouraging to mothers who deal very much in a reality that can feel daunting with its pressures of perfectionism. It leaves me wanting to reread Peter Pan alone and hear the theme of motherhood lauded, but also wanting to read it to my children, as we will enjoy together the flight of fancy that ultimately keeps us grounded in the real world. Please keep including articles like this for moms raising our kiddos as children of God in this modern society. This down-to-earth viewpoint feels like a friend encouraging our efforts and offering practical resources, while not demanding a perfect household. Let us first be Mary at Christ's feet with ears listening and hands folded. The dishes can wait. The children grow up fast and will be the parents of tomorrow.
