My Brother Emmanuel
I grew up with my older brother Emmanuel, just three years apart. We were raised by our grandmother in a small household filled with chickens, a bably sibling, and a whole lot of love. Emmanuel was a foodie before we even knew that word meant. He had an appetite for everything- especially eggs straight from the chicken coop. I still laugh when I think about how he used to eat them raw, right there in the yard.

Baby Swimming Lessons
I was so excited when our boy started swimming lessons at four months. As we walked through the doors that first day, the familiar smell of chlorine greeted us. For some reason, I find it oddly comforting. It was winter, but they had the venue set to the perfect temperature so we weren’t cold when we stripped down to our swimmers. We were greeted by a friendly staff member who showed us around, and then we were ready for our first lesson.
