I say “littles,” but in truth, we only have two actual little ones by my tally at this point.
Simon is 5, and Jude is 3. That’s still “little” territory.
But the others? Phin is nearly 12, John Mark is 10, and Birdie just turned 8.
No longer little. “Middle” for sure.
I’ll figure it out eventually, I know. So forgive me as I readjust twenty+ years of habit.
I’m no longer the Momma of a bunch of littles. I’m the Momma of young adults, bigs, middles, and a dwindling handful of littles.
