Life During the Pandemic

 


I celebrated my 30th birthday in March two days after the official case of COVID-19 was announced in Jamaica. In this picture you will see a woman that has been through a lot. I weighed 1 pound at birth and I lost my twin sister. She only lived for a few hours. I am literally a miracle. From inception, God had a plan for my life. 


I am now walking in my purpose and my faith keeps growing in the Lord. The devil tried to take my life when I was 23 years old. I was attacked by an armed robber who was waiting for me in my mother's garden as I usually arrived home at midnight. However, the Holy Spirit warned me before I entered the premises that there was danger and that's how I moved in caution. 

 

I am writing this to tell you that God has a purpose for your life and He is not done with you. Even in this difficult time, learn to trust Him knowing that He will never leave you nor forsake you. He has greater things in store for you. 


I will leave you with this scripture- Jeremiah 29:11 - " For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. "

The Roller Coaster Ride of Breastfeeding | Breastfeeding Journey| How to stop breastfeeding

  There are a lot of mothers out there that would love to breastfeed their child. Breastfeeding is really a roller coaster ride. No one prepares you for it and shows you how to stop doing it. I am going to be sharing a little about my breastfeeding journey and how I eventually stopped breastfeeding. GOT MILK? When I gave birth to my daughter in 2017, no one prepared me for the journey that I would endure. My milk ducts were totally dried up and the nurses were telling me that I MUST breastfeed my daughter. However, after showing them all of my attempts to extract milk, they finally gave in and offered to give her some formula. I thought they would make her starve to death due to their strict breast feeding policy. I was finally able to breastfeed after 5 days.

When I left the hospital, the nurses had ...
