Love emerges so naturally

After a long and arduous wait I finally became a mother on July 2, 2021. I adopted a little two year old girl from India after a three year process. I am so in love and holding my baby daily makes me more so in each moment. While I dared to fly and go for my dreams it was a hard wait and a painful process.  I was so close to getting my child in April, but Covid in India delayed my trip for 3 months. But in the end the soulfulness gained during that time was worth it because I had to dig deep but mainly let go and truly have faith that I was where I needed to be. 

It all worked out in the end. My daughter is the biggest blessing I could have ever imagined. It has drawn me closer to my parents, brother, and niece/nephews, but mainly it has given me a purpose so much bigger than just myself (e.g. - more than just the fulfilling work that I do). I have always wanted to be a mother and to make it finally come true at a later stage in life is physically tiring, but emotionally I was so much more prepared to be a mother than I could have ever have been before. Thank goodness for following through on my heart's desires. It has been so emotionally fulfilling to finally have a soul to nurture day and night and truly fall in love so fully. I am filled up and there is so much more to be experienced together.

These first seven weeks have been a tiring time in my body, but my soul is so alive with joy!
