at last
i’m finally caught up. in every aspect of my life.. it feels wonderful :)
even more wonderful? jimi’s eating habits! it’s astonishing to watch this child devour whatever i’ll give him. it’s also highly amusing. and a relief. because quite frankly, pumping sucks. also, babies with full tummies sleep longer. or at least mine does.. i’ve learned that just because...

happy mother's day!
second to God, no one has ever done as much for me as my mom. she’s been there for me through more than i could ever even ask her, especially in the past year & a half. her wisdom and faith and love inspire me. i pray that i’m even half the mother to my son that she has been to me. if my son grows up loving and appreciating me like i do my mother i will consider my parenting a...

nothing like your child to cheer you up
after a long, sleepless, and mostly upsetting day i was ready to throw the towel in [in more than one arena]. all the sudden my little prince crawls up to where i’m sitting, stands up, and CALLS ME MAMA. he said MAMA!! talk about being on cloud nine! i think God knew i needed that. that small four letter word definitely turned this frown upside down :)
