My first Mother’s Day, and some exciting news!

It’s been forever once again since I wrote on here, and so many things have happened. Firstly, yesterday was my first Mother’s Day, which didn’t go at all how I had expected last year. Last year we announced our pregnancy on Mother’s Day and I thought for sure I’d have a 6 month old baby to cuddle by this time this year. Obviousely things happened quite differently and although Rebecca is no longer with us, I was flooded with Happy Mother’s Day messages yesterday, and it really made my day. I was so happy to be included in this special day.

For the record, I am still sad about losing Rebecca and I always will be, but I will ALWAYS be her mother and I will ALWAYS be happy to talk about her and to have her recognized and aknowledged. To omit Rebecca in order to “not make me sad” and “not remind me of all the things I’m upset about” will actually make me MORE upset. I wish I could let everyone in my life know this once and for all , there is still so much awareness I need to bring regarding my own feelings.

I started to see a therapist a few weeks ago, and it was a really nice experience. It was nice to talk to someone about her (as well as other things going on in my life) and to have some of my feelings validated, particularly the fact that what we went through was quite a traumatizing experience, and it’s normal that I still feel sad and have difficulty adapting to certain new experiences, and that I still have a hard time thinking positive about our dream of more children. I’m going to be seeing her about every other week to work through the next couple months.

Now for some exciting news!

Are you ready?

My husband and I are currently undergoing IVF treatments! We are on the road to parenthood once more, and tomorrow, we are having one of my fertilized eggs transferred into my uterus, and hopefully, we’ll get to become parents once again! The road to parenthood for us this time involved many many doctor’s appointments, as well as countless needles and medications. It involves a lot of uncertainty (and a lot of money spent!) but my body has reacted well so far to the treatments. We were able to retrieve and fertilize 17 eggs. We are not replacing Rebecca in any way, we are making her a big sister and we look forward to hopefully raising our next little one!

Until next time!

Radical New Idea:

A female character who is a cold, relentless leader, always pragmatic, and able to make whatever hard decisions need to be made in order to ensure success and survival, tremendously skilled and devastatingly efficient at her job, tragically terrible at being overtly nice to people, who is also not evil and is still fundamentally a good person.

The Moral of This Post is: No matter how genius  your idea is, Hiromu Arakawa probably already did it, and she did it better than you could ever hope to.

is this a renaissance painting?

“Interrogation of the Zodiac Killer” -The Ghost of Sandro Botticelli ca 2015

So I slapped some mathematics on this picture and…

The red lines divide the picture into thirds. They also mostly coincide with the doorway (and Cruz’s right hand), framing him nicely as the Main Character of this picture.

The green line was placed using the golden ratio (the ratio between parts of the picture above it and below it is close enough to 1:1.618). It also goes right under his chin (and through some reporters’ hands or tools).

The purple lines are diagonals that are framing the reporters really nicely.

I’m pretty sure you could also do something clever with a circle and the yellow doorway behind him, but I don’t have the patience to fiddle with that.

Basically, this picture has the same “maths are beautiful” aesthetic as (some well-known) Renaissance paintings.

It also means a photographer did a DAMN GOOD job taking it

Happy New Year

Yesterday was New Year’s Eve and it started off as a rough day. You see, we didn’t really do anything much for Christmas this year, mainly because my family was scheduled to drive down from Canada to Orlando for the New Year, so we’re doing out big get together around New Years. Meaning the house started to fill with people and presents under the tree and food. That’s when it hit me that Rebecca wasn’t here when she should have been. She would have been the brand new baby that everyone passed around until it was time for feeding/a new diaper/bedtime. Instead she is in her urn on her shelf, with a little candle next to her and far away from all the excitment, as she always will be. 

During our New Year’s Eve party, my little sister and amateur photographer Roxanne (roxyjawz on instagram) told me that she had wanted to take a good polaroid photo of Rebecca’s urn so I could have something to hold and put in my wallet, but she had forgotten her polaroid in Canada. She did offer though to take some pictures of her and of us together with her phone and her other good camera. Well, we had ourselves a little photoshoot and it was the most beautiful gift that could have been given to me because it made me feel like a mom for the first time in a long time, taking pictures with my baby, even if it is her ashes. Here are some pictures she took, and also a photo of her holding Rebecca. 

I held onto Rebecca as we rang in the New Year, it was nice to celebrate as a family with her included.
