We’ve been loving our baby Tiger for 18 months now, 9 months while he was still inside of me and 9 months of him being earth side. I can’t explain how the minute you discover you are pregnant you immediately start loving this little thing inside of you. This love grows as you grow this …
I had no idea that mom guilt was such a real thing until I had Noah. I also had no idea that it would almost double when Joel came along. I think the root of mom guilt is that I’m always wondering if I’m doing enough or if I am enough for my boys. I …
I want to say that I met my biological father, James for the first time on 6 April 2021, but this isn’t entirely true. I think I’ve seen him about a handful of times in my life. I also only have one memory of him, from when I was a little girl of three or …
The last month has passed by in a blur. We’ve been living with a little boy and a new born in our house. The Lion has handled the change and additional family member like a champ even with a few hiccups but life at home has been busy and found David and I living in …

Friends that have been together for a decade or a day, but are loyal, loving, honest, and fun-loving.
