Months 6-8 of pregnancy were so hard. I couldn’t have imagined the joy to follow so shortly after. Every day I felt like I was just.trying.to.make.it.through.another.day. ⠀
⠀
My heart ached so much. The season was chaos and waiting. Hurry up, slow down. ⠀
⠀
A lot of that feeling was reflected in the photographs we took during that time. ⠀
⠀
November 1st with our daily photo I shared, “someday, soon, it won’t be 10pm all the time.” Even typing those words out brings tears to my eyes. ⠀
⠀
The sun came up. Our seasons shifted. And wow, it all feels like a lifetime ago now. ⠀
⠀
I’m glad we didn’t wait. We didn’t wait for things to be bright & happy to slow down & document our life in a meaningful way. ⠀
⠀
It was an act of faith. Sharing from the valley. Knowing, hoping good things are around the corner. ⠀
⠀
And here they are. So many good things, so many good days.
