Peri wakes up and I pick her up to give mama a good look at her. Lea: She looks a lot like you did as a baby. It brings back so many memories…although that was a very tough time for me. I would love to hear more about that, but…

It’s Egg Day, but we really don’t have any plans to celebrate it. Q leaves for his morning jog and I’m greeted by a smelly diaper and a hungry, fussy little girl. Q gives Peri a quick kiss when he returns from his run, then he joins me at the…
Alice eventually notices that I’m isolated from the family. She walks over to check in on me… Alice: You don’t watch Game of Llamas? Alida: No…I never had the chance to get into it. This is true…trying to work and survive has taken up the majority of my time. Alice:…

I hurry out of the house before Roman has a chance to show up. If I saw his face, I know I’d be tempted to break it. It’s a bit too hot to spend much time outside, so I head to the lounge and order something to eat. I order…
I’ve tried to ignore the morning queasiness and the fact that my clothes have been feeling tighter lately…but there’s no denying this now. I’m expecting a baby… I clean up the mess I’ve left in the toilet and run a bath. My thoughts are all over the place, but eventually,…
