Ilana’s Reviews > Motherhood: Facing and Finding Yourself > Status Update

The author is recalling her homeschooling experience: “we grew crystals, raised butterflies, mummified chickens – some are still buried somewhere in the backyard…”.

Interesting, interesting…

Not sure I’ll finish this one (potentially too much Jungian analysis for me) but I like the main idea introduced: motherhood is like a descend into darkness and further reemergence into light. With all the good and bad, ugly and beautiful. (And it analyses fairy tales. That I like.)
