Oh God, I’m so tired. I’m so tired of being scared every single time I have to pee. Of that moment each time I look down and hope to that there’s no blood. Tired that everything I do could lead to another contraction, another ER trip we can’t afford. I’m…

Hello,
I’m Kris
Wife to an amazing man and mother to two crazy kids I would burn the whole world down for. I love to write, and so I write. I also love to draw, but I’m not very good at it.
