So my daughter started this week and I am not ok. *cue a flood of emotions cause how have 3 years gone by so fast? 😭

Today’s my birthday YAY!! I say yay but with most birthdays that have passed in the last few years, I haven’t felt a feeling of jubilation or celebration.

My journey to what a traditional ‘successful’ life should look like has been bumpy.

As you know by now there’s been a lot of reflection that’s been happening over here & lessons being learned.

I didn’t take a lot of pictures while pregnant. Ante-partum depression will do that to you.

I really pressured myself to get this post out before the end of last year. I was like ‘this is what everyone does you know and that’s what you’re supposed to do right? When you have a blog? Make sure you get that last post of the year in before it’s too late?’

In the literary words of our dearly departed princess Aaliyah, we really be going back, back, forth & forth when it comes to learning life’s ever changing lessons. The struggle is real ya’ll!

Do you sometimes just take a step back and think ‘we’re the adults now?’

So I did a thing. This is the thing.
