After a few years of unrelenting pregnancy and parenting, I am finally attempting to reclaim some of the pre-mommy person I once identified with. I am dancing more. I took two dance classes over the last week, taught a dance intensive, taught at a gymnastics club, and I am beginning to choreograph a piece with Lizette for a fall performance. All of this dancing has made me feel more grounded, more free, and more myself. I actually feel high after teaching and taking class. For those 2 hours or so, I do not think about anything else but being in my body. I am not a mother or a wife, but I am a mover and a feeler. It is such an amazing release and I am so grateful for that connection. I look forward to the next few months full of rehearsal, sweat, sore muscles, and creative energy. All of this dance feels like a reclamation, a deeper connection to the soulful mama embracing this journey more fully every day.

You look PHENOMENAL! I love you woman and am SO happy you are reclaiming yourself. I am just so beyond ecstatic for where you are in your life and really admire you as a mom and as a true individual who listens to her instincts. I SO need to talk to you soon and hopefully I get to.
