It’s been a long time since I’ve written anything, or even shared our work online. Life has been super busy. We added two additional members to our family, they are now 2.5 and 15 months. Being a mom of 4 has been an entirely new journey.
Having to navigate being a mom to a toddler and a baby all over again has been super tough. I’m exhausted by the end of the day. But I’m filled with love and gratitude everyday. I feel blessed and lucky to be able to watch the kids grow and be with them as they learn and grow.
Aside from new motherhood, something else has kept me from writing, and sharing publicly like I used to. Witnessing the genocide that’s happening in Palestine since 2023 has been exhausting, nauseating, and depleting. There is a feeling of utter defeat and dehumanization of our people that you can’t move past.
How can we go on about our day when all that’s going on? let alone be in a celebratory mode…
I’m finding it very challenging.
Praying for peace and justice in the new year.
