New beginning, missed opportunity

It occurred to me during Yom Kippur services that one thing I didn't do that I regret was not saying Shehechayanu the first time I nursed my now 5-month-old. If there is any occasion to show gratitude for being sustained and strengthened to an important day, childbirth and breastfeeding ought to be it. We can get so caught up in our worlds, especially with a baby in the house, and forget all the small miracles around us!
