My “maternity leave” is almost up, and the picture above is a pretty accurate one when it comes to the reality of our lives for the past few months. At first, Josh and I thought we hit the jackpot. Our baby boy Jude didn’t cry and he put himself to sleep. But each day that [...]

I would like to mention that the birth was completely natural, not induced like many people assume. Ever since his arrival, my life has been a combination of euphoria and fatigue –just like [...]

I’ve been holding onto some emotions for a while now, since December to be exact. I decided that the best thing to do, was to share my feelings with the world, as a means to move on. Along with emotions, I’m also sharing a handful of work that I’ve yet to reveal. The two are [...]

My family roots tie me to farmers, yet I find myself drawn to wanting to live in the city– I sometimes feel like I’m living a double life. My backyard, while very small, is a garden haven in the summer. Most of the yard is filled with raised beds where we grow various vegetables. In [...]
