P R O J E C T  2 0 2 6 - Hard Launch✨

It’s been almost a year since my last grid post… and whew, LIFE has truly been life-ing. 😅 Lord have mercy, what a year it’s been.

But one thing I can say for certain, when they say “in God’s timing”, it’s no joke. From my myomectomy (fibroid surgery) journey in 2024 to now safely delivering our beautiful baby boy, it has all felt nothing short of miraculous.

Introducing our greatest creation… Born at 39wks +1 day, say hello to my mighty boy Bryson (Osei Kwadjo) Mesiyah Lee. Isn’t he gorgeous! 👶🏽💙

In my 40s, I experienced a natural pregnancy that was honestly quite smooth overall (minus the dramatic end of the first trimester 😭). No morning sickness, lots of rest, good food, nesting, prayer and gratitude. Ladies in your mid-late 30s-40s please don’t give up. I am a testament that you can have a successful pregnancy. I will share more on how I got here. As for the c-section delivery… An UNFORGETTABLE chilled party. The consultant had baby boy pulled out of my womb to Common’s ‘Come Close’. Yes the theatre played my @spotify playlist. 😇

Becoming a mother is something I’ve deeply desired for so long. And to be completely honest, it’s the most fulfilling role I’ve ever stepped into. A role filled with unconditional love, softness, purpose and favour. I’ve always loved children… and now I finally get to experience this kind of love firsthand.

To my hubby-to-be @kevinleevibes 🤍 thank you for being by my side through it all. From every appointment, every emotional moment, every treat, right down to surprising me with an unexpected delivery at the baby shower. Now that moment was SPEEEECIAAAALLL! He put a ring on it 💍🤗!

And to my beautiful family and friends (too many to name but you know who YOU are); thank you for every check-in, prayer, treats, advice, visits, messages and moments of support during such a vulnerable but beautiful season of my life.

The glam team i.e. @madebyak_  and @bettysunisexhairstudio for making me look beautiful. @sansabakes the Baby Lee cake YUMMMMY, thank you so, so much! 

Now I can finally eat sushi again 🍣🥢😂
