A Reflective Blog About Pursuing Motherhood. Finding an Online Community. August 2, 2016. August 2, 2016. I have felt like I wanted to write this blog post for a long time.

Before I talk about the podcast, let me just give a glimpse of their About Us description:. It felt like I had just found a community that was designed for me! They als...

Tired of keeping secrets. September 22, 2014. When we first started thinking about adoption, I didn’t want anyone to know. For so long I’ve suffered with infertility in silence, bearing the question of “when are you going to have kids? I don’t give up quite that easily →. 5 thoughts on “ Tired of keeping secrets.

Who am I and how did we get here? September 18, 2014. September 18, 2014. They would offer encouragement but it didn’t make it any better and why put them in that place? One thing that I’ve found on this journey is that it’s lonely. No one really understands unless they’ve been there. Friends offer to listen whenever you need to talk or cry but why put them in a place where they feel like they have to have those perfect words to make you feel better when there really are no words.

Is It Fair?? | MooreThanFashion
https://moorethanfashion.wordpress.com/2016/05/19/is-it-fair
May 19, 2016. Today I feel like I’m being stalked by beautiful babies! Everywhere I look I see babies. It got me to thinking. I just turned 43 May 2nd, and at this point I don’t know when I will become a Mom. I know women are having babies at a much older age, look at Janet Jackson! I thought about how I may never see my son or daughter get married or have a grandchild because I’m older! What about the responsibility of taking care of older parents? What if it’s our only child?
