Go California!

2 Nephi 1:7 Wherefore, this land is consecrated unto him whom he shall bring. And if it so be that they shall serve him according to the commandments which he hath given, it shall be a land of liberty unto them; wherefore, they shall never be brought down into captivity; if so, it shall be because of iniquity; for if iniquity shall abound cursed shall be the land for their sakes, but unto the righteous it shall be blessed forever.

Tips for Breastfeeding Success (from a mom who learned the hard way)

Image
*I have had a couple of friends say they've sent my post to several women, and saying I should get paid for this post 😆 Honestly, I just want other moms to have a better experience than I had. Sifting through all the info in the newborn fog was SO hard. So I'm genuinely happy to compile all this and update it periodically if it will help anyone have a better experience than I had. BUT if you found this helpful at all and would like to buy me a coffee, my Venmo is @janaeandmatthew  (thank you!). Don't feel obligated. This post exists for free on my personal page for a reason. Thanks for reading and thanks for sharing!* So, you're either here because you know my breastfeeding struggle the last 15 weeks, because you're expecting and I want you to be more prepared than I was, or because you are trying to see if you've missed anything worth trying in your own struggle.  Let me just say right off the bat that we all have different capacities. We all have different le...

Facts

Fact: As difficult as I know it will be, I'm yearning for a family and for motherhood right now. Fact: I miss all of my friends I used to celebrate Christmas with. We used to have a really fun time, and we were all really good at giving good gifts to each other. Fact: I love giving gifts. I consider it a talent of mine. But I only really enjoy it when I know people well and have put a lot of thought into something they'd enjoy. I have almost no one left outside of my family who I feel I can do that for. Fact: Someone stole my 3-hole puncher. Honestly? Why would you want to steal that? Fact: I was very mad at and mean to my students today. I feel bad. Fact: Almost no one came to Enrichment tonight. Fact: Elf is a funny movie, no matter how few people are there (and no matter how many times you see it). Fact: I'm finding joy in that it's December and there is no snow! Fact: My heart is still broken. I don't know what it will take to unbreak it. Fact: I want something...

A Good Day

In an effort to recognize the hand of the Lord in my life, I'm going to write this blog. Things were a bit rough the last week or two, especially Saturday, where I seemed to have reached my limit. I bombed my Spanish Praxis (which I studied for for over a month), had a traumatic dream, and went to get Red Mango after work, where they told me that their Original flavor machine was broken. Fantastic. I made an effort to really set things right on Sunday and was immediately blessed for my efforts, so I need to share them. These might seem like insignificant little things, but they matter to me, and they've made my day great, so I should share. I received a calling I am very excited about. More on this later. But I really am excited and so humbled! I did really well on my written dance final today. I already know the future. It says, "A." I also got to leave as soon as I was finished which means I got out of dance early. I started a bowling game off with a spare and two s...
