After a busy holiday week (and the start of a 6-month sleep regression), I’m late on a 2023 recap 😅 But I wanted to sit down and reflect on what was truly a life-changing year.
• Started 2023 determined to get my Lebanon story in the news. By the time it aired, Matthias made his TV debut 🤰🏻😆
• Experienced a dream-come-true: was pregnant at the same time as my sister!
• Cherished every part of pregnancy & DREAMT of meeting our son!
• Began getting contractions while producing the 5 o’clock news 📺
• Flew through labor, had a wild delivery & postpartum, and survived it all thanks to my unbelievable husband, mom, and family.
• Went on to experience the most transformative 6 months of my life. I can’t put into words how Matthias has changed me. But one day I hope to write about it 🥺
Each January, I write new goals. This year, there’s a lot I hope to accomplish. I want to create a more structured routine for Matthias and myself. I want to get back to writing about Lebanon. But my #1 goal is to learn how to put that list aside and thank God for what I already have. Tbh, I struggle with that. In 2024, I’m aiming to put my phone down, be more present, and *fully* appreciate the list above 🙏🏼
From going on a babymoon, to finding out we were having a boy, to experiencing the moments I listed above — 2023 was filled with life-changing moments I will cherish forever. Here are some of the photos from the year :)
