DISCLAIMER

This blog is where I record a limited depiction of my feelings, family, and faith. My blog was recently under intense scrutiny, and so I feel this disclaimer is necessary. I try to tell my story as openly as I can, but this blog represents a cropped and narrow-viewed version of my story -- like all social media -- it is NOT the full story. Many events happen behind the scenes that are not recorded or written about, due to the sensitive nature of others involved. Life has many layers. Many layers can be shared and many cannot, and this blog is simply a layer of my life that I allow others to view, but it is not an accurate depiction of all the layers of my life.

Bruised

I was looking at Charles' phone and I came across a picture I had never seen. Apparently, he snapped this photo right after Henry was born. (I didn't know cause I wasn't really there -- though my body was lying on the bed.) Now, just ignore that poofy-looking lady to the left, and focus on the baby. Look at his coloring. I recall mentioning how "wrong" the descent of Henry felt, it was too fast. This picture shows the crazy bruising that Henry had after he shot-out of the canal at turbo-speed. The nurses kept mentioning to me how bruised he looked. He really was banged-up. I remember (vaguely) the nurses told me I was not ready to push, but I just could NOT keep him in any longer, so I pushed! Just another result of forced labor/contractions. Poor thing. 

I was also happy to find out THIS is the image Charles has been showing all his friends/colleagues. 

Thanks, honey.
