Read excerpt
I'm writing this from the other side of the threshold. My second child is 4 1/2 months old now and I am just now starting to feel like a person who can sit at a computer for longer than a baby nap allows. If you've been in my world for any length of time, you know I don't come back from a transitional life moment like this the same way I went into it. None of us do.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!KuWA!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:s
