Ep. 3 - A Litany of Last Times

I saw a quote online a few years back, and it went something like this: at some point, you picked up your child for the last time and didn’t know it was the last time.

Amongst all the guff I see on the internet, that particular thought genuinely caused me to pause. Not because it’s sentimental, but because it’s true. One day, you scooped up your child without a second thought — they were crying, or tired, or just wanted a cuddle — and then you put them down, and that was it. You never did it again. None of us marked the occasion, and no one tapped us on the shoulder and said, that was the last one, mate. Hope you savoured it.
