Exactly a week before I gave birth.

It seems like it was only yesterday my husband and I found out that we're pregnant. It felt surreal that our prayers have been answered. We've been trying to have a baby for over a year that time.

I can still remember doing the pregnancy test twice in a row. The result left me flabbergasted. POSITIVE!

At long last!!!

Then came the day we got a glimpse of our little one inside mama's tummy. It was then I felt unconditional love. Hearing our baby's heartbeat for the first made the whole experience even more special.


Joy beyond compare.

Came 6th October of last year. I went through 9 long hours of labor. Gabrielle then made her entrance via emergency C-section.

Say "cheese"! 😊

And just like that, my days became happier and brighter. Gabrielle turned 5 months old recently. Wow! Where did the time go? She's growing up real fast right before my eyes.

Time indeed flies..

Thus I am enjoying every single bit of being a mom.

Thank you for reading! Til next time! 😊
