Not even gonna lie, those words haunted me for YEARS. 🥺 I already struggled so bad with the fact that I couldn’t get pregnant, so hearing somebody use the ONE thing I wanted more than anything against me really stuck with me.

Sometimes I just stare at him like… you’re really MINE. 🥹😭 After years of wondering if I would ever get to experience motherhood, I finally understand a love I didn’t even know existed.
