Goodness. This is rich. Capturing a few of your thoughts:

*"I wonder when I will allow myself to drop the “becoming” and own my newly adopted family identity." ~~I wonder when I will stop becoming and just be.

*"Is there something about being a 30-something woman that has tasted enough of the possibilities that ultimately I feel like I’m settling, rather than settling down?" ~~Is there something about being a 40-something woman... that ultimately I feel like I'm settling, rather than settled (as in having an identity, purpose, place)?

*"Could it be true that a sense of home within is cultivated by every home-ful place I’ve known in my past?" ~~ Hmm... it's all a part of me in every story I tell and spark of connection.
