What if you were to close your eyes after reading this post and imagine yourself investing in your talents, mental health, and lifestyle that you truly want to live. What if you remained committed to following your dreams? 

Dear Baby,

Baby girl, we are now approaching 23 weeks to come tomorrow. You weigh in about 1 pound, and you are around the length of an eggplant. Eggplant’s length can vary from anywhere from 11-12 inches. I imagine how beautiful your smile will be each day.

I have been a stay-at-home mom since my first child was born in 2017. No woman in my immediate life gave me any solid advice on how to save money as a stay-at-home mom. In fact, many of the women in my life could not relate to not having a job and being home for a long stretch of time to take care of their child or children.

20 weeks, baby, baby! In my best Biggie Smalls impersonation voice! We are halfway there, and I can’t believe “well I can” how fast these five months have come. We know the gender of our baby, and we have started buying clothes and baby essentials.
