My name is Esperanza (for blogging purposes). I am a 30 year old middle school Spanish/English Language Development teacher living in San Francisco, CA. This blog was created after I lost my first pregnancy and continued trying to conceive. Only months later I became pregnant again. While my pregnancy was riddled with anxiety I enjoyed it immensely. In early June of 2010 I welcomed my daughter into the world.
Now this blog has become a record of my journey as I stumble gracefully through motherhood. I continue combating my anxiety by practicing mindfulness, acceptance and loving-kindness. I try to be the best mother I can be while letting go of society's expectations and being content with who I am and what I can do.
Motherhood has brought me many places, including the world of cloth diapering (with a coin-fed laundry machine!), bilingual parenting and stroller negotiation in a crowded city. This blog will explore all these topics and more as I try to make sense of my new identity.
I hope you can join me as I stumble gracefully towards the new me.
