On Being Kind

By -
Written on 6/24/2018 When I was in first grade, we had an alliteration assignment where we had to come up with a descriptive word about ourselves that started with the same letter as our first name. Well, as you can imagine, the letter K did not lend itself well as a descriptive word. While my options were few, I quickly came upon a word I was satisfied with: kind. I've always thought of myself as someone who tries hard to think of others' feelings and to try to be as nice as possible. Albeit, children make many mistakes in this area. But, I had the good fortune to grow up in Hawai'i, a diverse and wonderful place, that taught me I am not better than anyone else. Hawai'i taught me to treat everyone around me the way I wish I had been treated. Well, a lot of time has passed since those almost carefree days, growing up in Hawaii. I am an adult now, and life and people (in general) are not always as kind to me as I would like. This past year especially has been a really ro...

Learning to Talk

All the pregnancy books say that you should talk to your baby. They can hear you and will start to recognize your voice. I don't know why, but up until this point I have felt plain silly, sitting by myself, or infront of other people, and having a conversation with my stomach. I guess its still hard for me to grasp the fact that there is a baby girl inside of me. Well, this weekend I had a wakeup call. My baby tried to come too early.  I started having regular contractions and my cervix dilated two centimeters. I am 29 weeks pregnant. She's not supposed to come until at least 36 weeks. I watched as my nurses talked to my stomach and thought, if they can do it, I definitely can. I spent the weekend in the hospital pleading with my baby girl to stay put and I prayed to God that if she didn't she would still be okay. My prayers were answered and my baby girl isn't here yet. She's safely waiting in the womb where she belongs. This whole episode has taught me a few t...

What I Didn't Expect

So, I feel like I should be documenting this time of growing (literally) somehow. I mean, pregnancy is after all a significant time in one's life. So instead of writing all the really little things, because there are so many, I decided I wanted to write a list of things that have changed that I didn't expect (coming from a women who is pregnant her first time). I apologize in advance if you are reading and think, TMI (too much info!!!!). 1.  I didn't expect to loose weight, instead of gaining, my first trimester. Of course this is due to the fact that I really didn't have an appetite and couldn't eat before 11am in the morning or after 9pm at night. There were a lot of awful mornings and nights in that time period where I would have given anything to just keep water down. But, ya know, its true what they say, you forget about it. I mean, a month ago I couldn't physically do the dishes or sometimes kiss my husband (unless he took a breath mint) haha, ...
