a new chapter

I love this beautiful and blissful time growing a tiny human and growing a deeper connection with the love of my life. I always had a hard time committing to adding a little one to our little family. I loved our relationship. I loved everything about it being just us. I was afraid of losing the us I was used to. We’ve been inseparable throughout the entirety of our relationship and I thought our intimacy was everything it could be.

But I was wrong.

This new chapter of us has brought us into new depths within ourselves and each other, into places I never knew we needed to go. Perry has always been attentive and aware of my needs, but he is even more attuned since I’ve gotten pregnant, sometimes anticipating them before I even know what they are. I’ve loved seeing him grow into this new glowing version of himself. I’ve loved seeing us grow together, accessing better parts of ourselves. It feels like the baby has unlocked some magic that allows us to see so much more clearly.
