The image of “catch and release” feels especially powerful, reminding us that our children were never ours to possess but gifts entrusted to us for a season, formed in love and then returned to God’s larger story. It reads like both a lament and a prayer, honoring the ache and holiness of letting go. I’ve been writing about that same movement of love — how holding and releasing are both part of eternity unfolding in time — and I’d be honored if you read it here: https://theeternalnowmm.substack.com/p/eternal-love?r=71z4jh
This was so beautiful and gave me all the feels and warmth of love to overflowing about raising my girls (now 40, 38). You described it pretty perfectly. Reading your book now and so enjoying it!
