These past weeks, I’ve been going through some sort of process. Exsistentially. •
Every time these developing phases come to me, they start off by giving me a sense of meaninglessness. This feeling is very foreign to me in my everyday life. In fact, our lifestyle gives me a deep feeling of meaning - to my core - normally. Normally I never question the meaning of things anymore. I used to do it all the time, before we had kids - hence the choice of education.
•
But now, the feeling comes to me very seldom. When it appears, it consumes me. It’s numbing. I feel confused, depressed and lonely. I feel like there is nothing that I want, need or long for, that will help me out of these emotions. I just need to be in them for a while. •
And then, when I let myself learn all the lessons that my loneliness has for me, without me trying to “fix” it, the fog lifts. I feel better. I feel like I can be productive again. I am no longer numb. Or healing, because that’s actually what I feel, I’ve been through, when I get to the other side of it.
•
I am convinced that these emotions are directly related to both something spiritual and to something physical - spirit and female cycle, mind and body. It’s very challenging for me to be in these developing phases without thinking about my mental state in pathological terms or trying to cope by coming up with possible solutions.
•
But now, I’m on the other side, and my productivity has come back (hence the picture of my unschooling-ideas for the week). This is very satisfying to me - after all, I am a product of the culture I live in 🤷🏼‍♀️
•
I’m sharing this, because I want there to be a language for embracing vulnerability as strength and growth - not weakness. Maybe my words will resonate with you at some level. Maybe you’ll think I’m nuts. Both are ok.

Just spent an hour getting our little one to sleep. She’s 19 months. I nurse her while I hold her in my arms and rock my body from side to side. Going to sleep has been like that for her for a long time - after she said goodbye to her sling.

Both of our children are always nursed to sleep - always have been.
Which means I’ve been nursing for 3 years and 7 months now.
I haven’t been outside the house after 18 o’clock by myself for the same amount of time.
I haven’t been drunk for the same amount of time either.

That’s MY choice.

I’m so sick of breastfeeding, and I’m so grateful that I can at the same time. There are days where I just want to scream “NO MORE BREASTFEEDING FOR ANYONE!” because I’m so touched out, my body is begging me to get all of the tiny hands OFF.

Nursing two kids simultanously is no picnic.
Every time someone tells me they weaned their child, I get jealous.
Every time someone tells me about their child who falls sleep without breastfeeding, I get jealous.

But It’s my choice. And if I really wanted it differently, I would change it. I would wean our children and I would help them fall asleep some other way.
I don’t though, because it’s not the right thing for US.

Saying out loud that something is hard and exhausting is not the same thing as wishing it would stop or wanting it differently.

If I wanted to stop breastfeeding, I would. I don’t. But I want to be able to talk about how hard it is sometimes and how fucking touched out I am sometimes, without it meaning that the way we choose to (still) include nursing in our lives is wrong.

There, I said it out loud - now you can too.

Going home tomorrow after 14 days of vacation in the South of France. ☀️
For 14 days straight, we have been surrounded by not only each other but four other adults and 7 other kids. Which means a group in total of 15 people all day - every day for two weeks.
☀️
It has been the most amazing and exhausting experience all at once. We have the best friends and I love them and their children so much, and I feel blessed to have gotten the opportunity to experience and enjoy their company and this beautiful country with them.
☀️
The exhaustion comes from having to keep children safe in an environment, where everything is unknown. You can’t just turn around and start cooking dinner, when there’s a pool outside and the children are running around playing. You can’t let them play unattended and sit down for a cup of coffee together, because they might crawl up one of the rocky mountainsides that surround the house, and fall down. You can’t let your 1,5 y/o whimpse around, like you do at home, because there are stairs everywhere and the water is right outside. Everything happens in shifts, so we each take turns caring for the kids and ourselves too. ☀️
This really brings you closer as friends and makes your teamwork abilities on point 🙋🏼😅
☀️
I’m SO gonna miss getting up and eating fresh crossaints from the baker with our friends every day. I’m gonna miss listening to the kids play all day long. Drinking cold wine. Going on trips. Kissing the baby. Playing games. Laughing so hard, I’m nearly crying. Shaking our heads at eachother cause of the chaos, but at the same time feeling warm and absolutely alive 🌪❤️
☀️
Thank you for this amazing experience @hjemmeskoleliv ❤️ I’ll vacay with you again - any time, any where, mamacita! 💃🏻
