Journey with You

I am quite depressed right now but it’s been a month since I last updated here so I forced myself to write something.

I weaned Cyrus. He still asked for it once a while but I think he pretty much got over it. (I hope.) I DO miss nursing. I feel really guilty whenever he asks for it and tries to unbutton my shirt.

I decided to stop by the daycare on the way home to see if I can change their minds.
