You Can Say "Period."
Some days I feel like the world has made great leaps in breaking "female" taboos. BodyForm has released an ad with blood in it instead of the strange blue fluid we've all grown used to, women talk more openly about their periods, about reproductive issues, and the stigma behind getting a sexual health check seems to be reducing.

The Angel
Life; one word that can mean so many things. It can mean what you have done in your life or it can mean just living in general; being able to breathe, being able to feel. We forget just how precious life is and what it can mean to us. We go on, day by day, feeling like we are on top of the world and nothing can stop us. Go on feeling invincible and strong. We never think about what might happen in the afterlife or how we might die. We never take the time to hug our loved ones and tell them how much we love them. What if something happened to them? What if they left and never came back? What if they just become another Angel in heaven? Well I lost someone very dear to me and I wish I got to spend more time with him and tell him that he is the strongest person I have ever known. My Grandpa.

Going to Baby School
Being a first-time mom is a scary thing. You are faced with this great responsibility of keeping a growing person alive for nine months in your body, and then you have to keep them alive when they come out of you as well. It can be a little daunting.

Being a Mom
I first became a mom seven years ago when my older daughter was born. I also have a three-year-old daughter. I love watching my kids learn new things. I like watching my daughter sing and do gymnastics. I like how she helps her sister and does her hair for school. I like watching my little one start school and blossom there. I like watching her in dance class. Her singing and dancing are hysterical at home. I like how she coos over babies, even diaper commercials. I love my daughter's hugs and kisses. They are priceless. As are cuddles and when they say I love you. Cuddling with them in bed on the weekends is the best. I really like when their teachers tell me how well they are doing in school too. I love watching my little one vacuum and help with laundry. I like when my kids donate their toys before Christmas and their birthdays. I like shopping for little girl clothes and shoes too. When you have kids, holidays are a lot more fun. I especially like celebrating Christmas with my kids. Baking cookies and decorating our house are fun with them. The look on their faces Christmas morning opening their presents is priceless. I like taking my kids to the movies, we've seen some good ones together. Same with children's plays.

An Open Letter To My Children’s Bio Mom Dear woman that gave birth to my children, Over the years there have been many things I have really wanted to say to you.

A Life Not Spent Alive
The earliest memory I have of myself is one that, to anyone else, seems pointless to hold on to. A waste of memory space, so I've heard. But, I don't know...I cherish it too much.
