    What a beautiful way to put it. That's exactly what it feels like.

    HEY!!! I got a new camera and had NO IDEA (until I was editing) that the beauty mode / filter setting was on… I didn’t even know they made cameras that did that 😂 anyway the airbrush look is fake AF and I need to figure out how to fix it for next time so please ignore 😩😭 just felt the need to mention it since I talk about skincare in this video 👄

      I was thinking why are my eyes so blurry, I must be tired, then I noticed the filter jittering and read your comment. Good on you for bringing it up cause real skin is beautiful skin and people need to know how real skin looks like 👏

    Tell me why I cried when you told us you loved being a mom. Thank you, again and again, for the comforting words for us ladies expecting. Truly my heart sings every time you talk about your experience. I’m 12 weeks tomorrow! Feeling more positive about it every day. Seeing you with Baby Atlas is truly beautiful. 😘

    About 20 years ago, I was working at Iwakuni Air Base as a Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force member. It's much cleaner and newer than Iwakuni station back then. It's a nostalgic video for me. Thank you!🙂

    Oh my god. This video gives me so much hope. Thank you for your vulnerability and honesty because, as a young woman figuring out these "roles" and expectations, it's so beyond comforting to see someone who went through an unexpected journey of becoming a parent and has found joy in it. As someone who didn't have a regular family or inherent support system, I have questioned if I will ever get to a point where the fear of parenthood will subside. I'm still not quite there, and I'm grateful I have a choice. But, nevertheless, it's so nice to know there are other people who are going through those insecurities and questions too.

    I'm trying to watch your videos more often again, they always make me in a better mood.
    I've been diagnosed with anorexia and i have depression symptoms as well. So my motivation isn't the best but I will try my hardest! So thats the reason why i haven't been so active in your community
    And happy birthday!! I hope you have an amazing birthday🥰
    But now I'm going to enjoy your video on the bus of from school 😁
    And I'm so sorry And sad that I missed your pregnancy journey, but I'm so happy for you! I really am! I wish you and your whole family the best of luck!
