Me I am

 A new year

not a new me

but a me who has become more me than I was last year

I look in the mirror and feel 

I have worked my whole life to become who I am now

the confidence that comes from grey hair 

and no longer having eyes tracking every movement of my butt

the power that comes from wisdom 

and learning to rely on my own "Mommy Magic"

feeling the power of "Mommy Magic" fill my being

and burst out of every pore

Learning that management is the balance of working for what is best for each in your circle 

while maintaining the integrity of that circle

Understanding that the physical is only a partial representational of the spiritual

And that life is about loving those you are with

and choosing to be with those you love

that things can exist simultaneously in states of "this is all-important" and "this has no real importance, even if its due tomorrow" and choosing which one you will act on

and no matter how patient you are trying to be, a toddler in your care 24/7 does occasionally need to be yelled at.
