sharing my thoughts on things that matter to me...
Motherhood: I had to go through a caesarian delivery because the baby is too big for my pelvis. This freed me from prolonged and harder labor and saved my baby from distress. Now I see a vertical, dark scar on my belly but I bear this with pride – this is what a mother’s courage look like!
Baby: a captivating being who makes life better, drains my stress and when she displays her cherubic smile, she instantly gets us wrapped around her little fingers
Pure Pleasure: the smell of my baby’s skin, looking at my baby’s face and seeing how she resembles me, hugging my husband, the touch of my baby’s little palm and fingers on my face
Perfect day: a day spent with my husband and baby! It’s perfect when you’re with the person you love. Everything else is just icing on the cake. It helps to be on a beautiful beach but if I find myself stuck in traffic, waiting for a ride or lining up in the grocery (fantastic times of bonding yata to), I couldn’t care less as long as my husband is with me.
Turning 30: I welcome another chapter in my life. I feel good about myself for having really lived my 20’s – tough experiences and choices, major decisions in life, life changing events – work, marriage and motherhood!
Best Moment: my bridal walk, wearing my best smile …and seeing my husband with tears welling in his eyes as he waits for me at the altar; seeing my newborn baby for the first time
Marriage: a blessed life and relationship, generates a feeling of being generously blessed and truly loved! A great marriage is a lifetime struggle. For me as a wife it means, prioritizing our dates, understanding his weaknesses and faults, accepting our differences, going the extra mile to express my love, thinking together, leading him closer to God. Marriage is where God’s best blessings dwell, this I truly believe. With this, we are able to overcome hardships, cope with child rearing challenges, communicate well, and even have fun and spontaneous good times together.
Words of Wisdom: Love your family. Let’s celebrate our family every single day – while the moment still matters, while the time still counts.
