May 4th, 2020 is Star Wars Day and as they say, “May the Fourth be with you,” it is essential to remember that your focus creates your reality. Star Wars blew my mind while growing up and I will be forever grateful for the lessons it taught me. The original trilogy of course…
The first of May is the beginning of the last full month before our baby is due in early June. On Angie’s birthday, the 29th, we harvested eggplant, lemons, onions, sweet potatoes, chives, mint, loquat, and green beans. Afterward, an impromptu pregnancy photoshoot took place near the bamboo. I’ve never heard of a woman to retain a glow that lasts throughout all three trimesters but I have the photographic evidence that it does exist.
