It's Me Again

Okay, It has been and entire TWO years since my last post to this page and I am deeply ashamed. As you have probably guessed, many things can happen in two years. For me I became a mommy, again. For the third time. To yet another boy (I already had two boys). My body did not rebound in the remarkable way it did with the first two children (both born to me while I was in my twenties) in the amount of time that I wanted. I did not return to my pre-pregnancy weight (Thank God) but I did not lose all that I expected to lose either. However, I maintain that all the inconveniences and physical disapprovals are worth my chubby now two month old cherub. I had two great children already but it's even more humbling to have a new little one that I can say is "a good baby." So I'll trade my pre-thirties physique for what and who I have in my life right now. More on my journey later.

Trying To Love The Skin I'm In

Not too fat,
Not too thin,
Trying to love the Skin I'm In.

Hair too short,
Eyes too small,
Can't see past my nose at all.

Supermodel?
Not my bag.
Legs are stubby, biceps sag.

Why can't I
Look like them?
Because that's not the Skin I'm In.

Mirror image,
You're just fine.
Even if you are 29. . .+ (moving on. . .)

Lovable?
Absolute!
Husband, Children, Friends to boot :)

Never doubt,
Who I am.
Part of God's gigantic Plan.

When this
Uphill journey ends. . .
Will I love the Skin I'm In?
I sure hope so.
