I’m well-aware that I could continue on with my life without so much as a second look at any of all of this stuff in my past. In fact, that’s exactly what I’ve done until recently. The trouble is I suspect it may have something to do with whatever struggles and unrest I might ever experience at any given moment in my life. Things I never learned how to handle or manage. Coping skills and problem-solving skills I never quite mastered. Liiiike, speaking up for myself.
There is ever so much unrest and anger and resentment in the world right now. Apparently, there are folks out there who have been less than their best selves all this time. Here, in my tiny little world, I thought everything was fine. We all love, honor, and respect each other and want only the best for one another. Right? No? Wow.
When this is all over (#pandemiclife), there will be babies and there will be baby showers. I suspect, in particular, there will be a “boom” in baby showers right around October, November and December of this year. I’m pretty sure. In the name of getting back to (a new) normal, and in honor of all those precious littles to come, here’s a baby shower easy enough for the masses and sweet enough for each and every rock-a-bye baby!
