![CW: miscarriages, infertility and shipwrecks
The paperback for ‘Till All the Seas Run Dry comes out Tuesday so here is my favorite quote to remind you Eliza MacArthur is doing a pre-sale giveaway and I loved this book!
Robbie has “Hold Fast” tattooed on his knuckles and he’s talking to Callum about how sailors tattooed their knuckles to help them hold on to the ship during storms and whatnot and Callum says
“How fortunate that wasnae a practice when I was at sea. Had I held onto the ship I would have been killed or gone down with it and drowned. Sometimes ‘tis better to jump. The trick is to know the difference”
This quote resonated with me on a bone deep level. We struggled through miscarriages and infertility for years and found a way to stay curious about how far we should go to try to have a baby when I was emotionally and physically exhausted while the world screamed “Never give up!”.
“Sometimes ‘tis better to jump. The trick is to know the difference” YES!!! Here’s to being open to changing our minds! I might need this on a t-shirt! Thank you, @elizamacarthurwrites !!!
I hope you have the Saturday you need, Crew! It’s a good day to contact someone about a ceasefire. I love you!!!

I hid some Easter eggs in obvious places on the ground for Syd.
She didn’t get it.
She kept looking at me like, “What am I supposed to do with these? You know I don’t have thumbs, right?”
Then, I hid them in the dining room. These were going to be harder because as you can see, these eggs are camouflaged.
Then, she ate the treat out of this one, but kept pushing the egg around….just in case.
…gotta love her!
