Soulmate??



I just so happened to be listening to Aaliyah's "one in a million"...and wow, I miss Aaliyah...I wonder what would the R&B music be if she was still living...but anyways this blog is not about Aaliyah..

When this CD came out...I think I was in the 6th grade because I remember getting for my 6th grade promotion...and I'm just thinking about a love that is one in a million...a soulmate...does that really exist? Is there really only one person on this earth that you are meant to be with? Well I've been thinking a lot about whether or not my life is pre-destined...I believe that I am here for a purpose...what that purpose is, I am not sure...but I do know that God has a purpose for me...so maybe I believe the decisions that I am make allow me to determine my own destiny...however, if I have a purpose, then are the decisions something that was going to happen anyways?

I said that to say because then that would mean that along the journey of life that is "predetermined" that maybe my partner is already made for me and it is a matter of me running into him. All this talk about a soulmate also comes from the many of people around me that are getting engaged and having weddings? Is it that they found their soulmate? Well how did they know...I guess it is something that you feel...and something that you know once it happens...Love is a beautiful thing and so is marriage...something that I definitely aspire too...but a life long partner is definitely intense..so it would make sense that the person you decide to be your lifelong partner was your soulmate

Now I know people get divorced and things don't work out...so was that apart of your destiny? Or did you pass your soulmate up? Yea this is a very confusing topic. Especially when you consider how many people are here on Earth. Is it possible that there is only ONE person on this Earth for me with 6 billion people in it...well I do hope that there is...because I don't have the patience to go through 6 billion folks...

I'M JUST SAYING!!

and just like that, I am a Mother!

First day home! And finally the day has come. Magnus Baimarro Barley was born on New Year's Day! What better way to start the new year! Magnus entered this world on January 1, 2019 at 12:13 EST. He weighed 6.36 pounds and measured at 19 3/4 inches. Magnus is literally everything I could never imagine. And this is the story of how he entered the world... Ever since I hit 38 weeks, I became more and more anxious about his arrival. I literally was dreaming about it constantly. I would constantly wake up in the morning hoping my bed was wet from my water breaking. It had seriously become an obsession. Not only an obsession, but also causing great anxiety. As I was approaching my 40 week mark, I had to start having conversations with my doctor about scheduling an induction at 41 weeks. So, we had that on the schedule. But, I really didn't want to have to be induce because of what I hear about how it can extend labor. So, I started to look into ways to naturally induce. Pineapp...

32 weeks...its getting closer!

Art in the back is so representative of this experience. Local DC Artist Officially 8 weeks away! I'm getting more excited everyday just to see this little boy of ours. My pastor continues to remind me that "when a child is born, so is the mother." I am still having a hard time imagining what this means to be someone's mother. Although, I have 'mothered' the cutest little yorkie for 9 years, lol, I only imagine this experience being so much differently.   At this point, I am mostly just tired. Like tired all the time. Like tired and easily annoyed. Like tired and don't want to be bothered. Like tired! LOL. I am looking forward to maternity leave. I am not rushing my delivery, I just want to be at home, cuddled up and eating, lol. My mom got me this 'maternity ball'. It is basically the big ball in any gym/exercise room. OMG, this things works wonders. The lower back pain is something serious. But sitting on this ball and moving around helps...

36 weeks! Officially 9 months preggers!

Photo Taken by Daddy, Edited by Mommy Well what a journey this has been! I would say it doesn't feel like it has been that long, but I would definitely not be telling the truth. LOL. It has been very long, but I am not rushing it. I want him to take the time he needs to be fully developed, strong and ready to go. Photo Taken by Uncle Roy; edited by Mommy At this point, I am about 95% prepared for his arrival. I have taken the hospital visit, birthing classes, crib and baby things are up and organized, bookcase is being constantly filled, interview with pediatricians this week, etc etc. I have to pack my hospital bag, but I am not going to over do it. My main essentials are my wireless speaker because I need some good music bringing life into this world, a candle because I want a nice aroma, and other lady essentials because I don't want to get caught up feeling gross. LOL The body is tired! I am still working however; but the body is tired. It is like my mind can...
