after birthYou may remember the moving, wildly honest letter from a second-time mama to herself on the topic of fear that the Blooma blog posted a while back. What an example Sarah B. sets for not stuffing your fears, but instead looking them right in the eye! Now, make sure you catch her Christmas Eve birth story!
