Baby E – The Birth Story

December 9, 2018

Can’t believe it has been almost 2 weeks since Elise’s arrival! I still remember Laurent urging me to go to the hospital 2 weeks ago so that his baby sis can “come out”.

Pregnancy Symptoms and Pregnancy Essentials

November 22, 2018

I’ve started my leave from work this week so I have some time to tidy up the house, get the laundry and ironing done and do some nesting before Baby E’s arrival.

Now that things have pretty much settled down and I had ample time to think through and gain clarity on my life, I’m ready to share about the year I spent trying to figure out my life purpose.

Dealing with Loss and Grief – Our Experience

November 14, 2017

It’s been a month since the date that will forever be etched in our hearts – 12 Oct 2017. We went from counting the number of days that have passed, to number of weeks and now we’re counting in months.

October 31, 2017

It’s been more than 2 weeks since the arrival and departure of our dear Baby Ellie, and looking back, it’s starting to feel like a dream because things are going back to how they used to be. I know I have to jot this down in writing soon, before I forget the little details and everything becomes a faded memory. I haven’t ...
