    Sibling Reveries: Now we are ONE!

    It's been a year - baby Poppy is now 1 year old, and although the aftershocks of her birth have spread far apart, this big birthday spells a profound aftershock of grief for big sister Molly. The sisters are finding each other and becoming friends, and Rebekka is holding space for everyone's big, mixed-up feelings, including her own! We consider how to elevate ourselves along the lifespan experience of being a sibling, in the roles we play in family life, and throughout each family's unique developmental journey. How can we all get into a cooperative relationship with reality as family life changes?

    Sibling Reveries: Full Catastrophe

    As Jon Kabat-Zinn cribbed from Zorba the Greek, family life is the "full catastrophe." Newly mobile baby Poppy is struggling to organize herself and find her place in the family and the world, and it's taking a toll on everyone - mommy, daddy, and big sister alike. Tune in for mindful tips on dealing with biting, "poo-poo butt!", and and "Mommy, little sister is touching me!"

    Sibling Reveries: Input/Output

    Rebekka's family is still adjusting to the not so recent arrival of its newest member, who is now 9 months old. Rebekka has reclaimed the role of "mommy" in the eyes of her oldest child: some ruptures have been repaired! In spite of the speed bumps in this family's development (and growing sibling conflict), big sister Molly is showing something very important: when most of her "input" needs are met (good food, stimulating play, loving relationships), the "output" is love.

    Sibling Reveries: Go Away!

    Now that Rebekka's 7-month-old baby has become more of a person in her own right, everyone wants to compare her to her big sister. Which one is happier? Fussier? A "better" child? On top of this, drama persists between Rebekka and her older child, who often tells her to "GO AWAY!" When family life is like juggling chainsaws, sometimes the best (and only) thing we can do is share how hard it is with a trusted confidante.
