"A beautiful spring evening almost 1 year ago. I had just found out a couple of hours before this picture that I was pregnant with my first child. My boyfriend, who was shocked to say the least, kept touching my belly and my heart, and promised us both that everything was going to be ok, the reason for his promise is because I'm the sole caregiver to both my grandparents, both 84 years old, had no job and no home of our own to raise our child. I was almost entering my 2nd month, when one Saturday morning I felt really sick. I woke up that day with my first child inside of me, and went to bed without him. I had a miscarriage that day. So this picture, represents more than what meets the eye, it's my first picture taken with MY family, and as a mom."
