Meagan, I am the doting grandmother to about 20 grandchickens and your story made me smile. I love when we get to visit them (and of course, their human owners!)

This really hit home, especially as I navigate parenting my almost 7-year-old. There's always that ongoing tug-of-war between giving freedom and ensuring safety, isn’t there? Such a great read. ❤️

I wish I could say it gets easier as they get older, but it doesn’t really… you just lose control over more and more of the minutia. And, at some point it does get easier to stop worrying. about the stuff you don’t actually SEE happening.
