Hello relatable listeners. Happy Monday. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Can't believe that we are almost

done with April this week. It's going to be May 1st. That is

crazy. I of course am excited because summer is my favorite season. And also I'm about to give birth, which is really exciting.

I'm going to talk to you guys at some point about what that's going to look like post

baby being born, whenever that is, it's supposed to be the end of June. You never know. Could be a week after
