While brainstorming ideas for this blog post I came across this quote from Joyce Armor, "Think of stretch marks as pregnancy service stripes." It made me think twice about my body and everything it has gone through, including giving birth to a little human.
I am so proud of my "stripes." They remind me that I carried another human being inside me for 9 months. 9 months of scary doctor's appointments, 9 months of wondering if I would make a good mom, 9 months of loving someone I had never even met, but was a part of me. I earned those "stripes" over a year ago and I'll flaunt them for the rest of my life. They are a part of me and they'll always be a part of me just like McKenna.Striped Wrap Dress c/o PinkBlush Maternity | Wedges | Striped Romper | Striped Headband (similar)
