Shared care, community, and alloparenting may be closer to our human nature than the isolated nuclear family ever was. My first steps to reintroduce them in my life.
Yes yes yes! I’ve found that chosen family, relationships built over time have shown up for our family more in this season of parenting more than biological family. It was hard at first, a slow build for sure, but taking the time to intentionally cultivate trusted relationships has been so beautiful and rewarding 🤍
Thank you for sharing and validating this. I think one of the reasons the concept of chosen family is so beautiful is that time and care it takes to build.
I’m so glad you had friends to celebrate your daughter’s first steps with! 💗💗💗
Thank you. It was very sweet. 💕
