The popcorn is popping

November 29, 2014 YvonneLeave a comment

That’s what our little growing baby feels like sometimes inside of me. I like to imagine that when I feel that popping popcorn sensation it’s her way of telling me that she’s hungry and needs food now, since meal time is about the time it tends to happen most. Then once I get some food in me… Continue reading The popcorn is popping

Sweet Black Friday

November 28, 2014November 28, 2014 YvonneLeave a comment

I haven’t done the early Black Friday morning shopping in a very long time, but I really wanted to be in the mist of the hustle and bustle today despite being 7 1/2 months pregnant and having our three year old daughter, Celeste, along for the ride. But I’m not crazy enough to think I’d be doing… Continue reading Sweet Black Friday

I’m only human

November 18, 2014November 18, 2014 YvonneLeave a comment

I knew I wanted to share it on here, but I was unsure whether I would write any of my own thoughts to go… Continue reading I’m only human

The small stuff

November 4, 2014 YvonneLeave a comment

Some days all I would like is a tight hug, something longer than a second, and a sincere and heartfelt “I get that it’s hard. I understand now”. Without having to ask for it. Believe it or not, writing this and putting this out there feels almost like a hug in itself. I’ll take what… Continue reading The small stuff
