@mickeym i wish i had this type of energy & confidence when it really came down to asking for her back for any reason 😭 did it just come naturally to you or did it take time?

@mickeym yes yes, that is very true. you guys have all given such great advice and i’m so thankful! i just worry because this past xmas my boyfriend and i didn’t want anyone except for the 2 of us + his parents to hold her, because she was still little and the RSV risk. i really had to use the...
