The dryer buzzer went off. I could have taken the time to fold the clothes and put the new load in dryer…but

•

Instead I held you.

•

The dishes in dish drain needed to get put away and the dishes in the sink needed to be washed…but

•

Instead I held you.

•

My phone vibrated. I could have checked my email…sent emailed I needed to send…check my online groups and messages…but

•

Instead I held you.

•

I get choked up at how BLESSED I am to have you. So beautifully miraculously made. Your little veined streaked eyelids…the little twitches your lips make…the occasion deep breath sleepy sigh…these 5 months have flown by FASTER then I remember your brothers first 5months of life.

•

I will NEVER get these moments back. The simplicity of just holding and watching you sleep. Sometimes Life is TO COMPLICATED AND OVER SATURATED.

•

So INSTEAD. I held you!

•

I let time go by. I didn’t worry about anything that needed to be done or what I had done already. I lived and breathed with YOU in the moment. It was one of my best moments of the day. 😍

I am 35 yrs. old -a Wife and Mother to a Beautiful Boy and my Rainbow Baby Girl. I am a dance and fitness instructor. I own a fitness studio where I offer a variety of fitness classes in the evenings. I recently have become a FULL TIME Fitness Coach after 3+ years of working as a Day Care Assistant after having my Son and leaving my Emotionally Taxing Case Management Position. Fitness is my passion! I love to work out on my own AND with others! Throughout my both of my pregnancies I continued to work out on my own and with Beachbody programs, live my dream of being a work from home mom (for most of the day), and teach at my studio (and other locations) in the evening. After the birth of my son I have worked hard to get my pre-preg. body back. Shaun T's T25 was initial program and then Tony's P90X3 BOTH which I loved the short affective times because with having a newborn baby that was EXACTLY what I needed. I know and understand the self discipline it takes to achieve your desired goals and I am still on that path and have my struggles as everyone else does! I love to offer my support to my clientele with group fitness classes I offer in my community and I feel we work as a team all together to HELP each other. I LOVE offering my support via the web too as I REACH other people that I can't physically see. IT IS AMAZINGLY rewarding and I can't imagine NOT doing what I do! Im currently on my postpartum journey once again and so GRATEFUL and BLESSED to live this healthy lifestyle, lead by example for my family, and support others on their journey too!
