Change

the events that changed me

No event could ever compete, until now,
with the one event that changed my life, and me,
so completely, as to make me unrecognizable
and my life veer off on a different path,
then what it would have been,
but now, I can say instead, "Motherhood."
"The birth of my daughter changed me
and my life, it is one of the two events
that made me who I am more than any others."

Just checking: is this complete or a work in progress?
I wonder what was the other. I'm not asking though because that would be intrusive. Or maybe 2 = both kids. But then, no - because you tell us "Motherhood", as a complete concept, is one of them.

Parenthood looks terrifying. Amen. Lol.
