Man, I feel so lucky you still think I’m fun

Not gonna lie, I’m milking it as long as I can

Because you’ll always be my number one

My first real love


No matter how tough

When we disagree

When you say things you don’t mean

You’re learning these emotions the same as me

And I get it,

We’re doing our best

Mistakes happen,

No one is perfect

All I ask is that we always communicate with love and respect


I love you more than there are stars

Praying for endlessly cloudless nights to remind you of that


Every sunset reminds me how I never want to spend one without you

Competing with a tide of hormones and outside influences

I let go of an instinct to control and confine

And instead hope to guide you

To your own path


My little man

My almost up to my shoulder man

You make me proud everyday

You are the truth behind every corny love cliche

Sunshine in the rain

The rainbow after a hurricane

The heart I stitched into my sleeve

You are everything to me


That’ll never change

No matter how much you change

No matter how much more you grow each day

Whether millimeters or mentality

I’m here for you

Every step of the way

Origins

I’m not crazy, weathered at worst Like early days of earth Rubble rock birthing life from  violent destruction Fires burning molten in the underbelly of my origins Bubbling beneath cracked surfaces Where I oftentimes appear stable My heart is a volcano Bursting at the seams where new ground must form Former foundations crumbling, splitting like Pangaea  Where connections we once had feel like nothing more than distant history Evolution of man How he crawled out of water to feel sun upon his face How I would wait hundreds of thousands of years  In hopes he’d emerge from darkness to find me Staring out into space The nostalgia of quiet combustion Peering into past lives in the distance Knowing most of what I know to be beautiful is dead I am a supernova  Bursting at the seams where new life may form  Gathering masses from stray debris Gasses and gravity Nebulous love Pulling together new solar systems  in ancient designs and unwritten formulas Life is messy Somehow we find a way to fall

Come on Baby Light My Fire

I've heard that one of the more difficult parts of adjusting to parenthood is trying to find a balance between being a nurturing, new mother and still being a flirty, vivacious wife. I most definitely share in this sentiment! Don't get me wrong, it's not that my husband and I have lost attraction towards each other in any way. However, the healing process from a c-section birth can be long and grueling, and the process of feeling physically comfortable, let alone sexy and confident, might seem out of reach for a while. Becoming a mother is one of the most amazing blessings that a woman could receive, but the physical repercussions can be a little more than overwhelming. You find yourself wondering things like "will sex ever feel the same again," "how does my vagina plan to survive this," "is the remaining carnage I call my skin ever going to see the sun in a skimpy bikini again?" No matter your questions or concerns, I promise yo

Which Apocalypse Are You Rooting For?

I'm something of a movie junkie. I love them! There are so many on my "to-see" list that I just feel I've grown insatiable. One of my favorite genres is the whole major disaster/end of the world bit, mainly because I am an extremely pessimistic person [unfortunately] and I have what I like to call a "final destination" perspective. Whether you wanna call it Murphy's Law or just bad luck, I have given up doubting that the worst possible thing(s) could happen to me. I'm not gonna say I live my life in fear of death, but that my imagination allows me to play with ideas of death happening in pretty much any situation.   Anywho, I just watched Jurassic World [don't ask me why I waited so long to see it in theaters]. It was so awesome! It's amazing to think of what magnificent feats can be achieved through genetic modifications. Magnificent, but terrifying at the same time. I'm sick of humans always trying to play God. I would not be at
