@melisizm0 Priscilla. It’s my great grandmother’s name. Priscilla can be interpreted as "the venerable one," "the ancient one," or "the esteemed woman."

Therapy session this afternoon, which means a quick train ride into the city with my beautiful wife. Days like this are sweeter than honey and give me the warm and fuzzies. Luckiest lass in all the land ♥️

Strep throat and thrush…? Please cut my tonsils out before I do this shit my damn self.

[Kaylah Welsh @welshkayy]

Our donor sperm is en route to our fertility clinic as we speak 🥹 genuinely could not be more excited!!

[Kaylah Welsh @welshkayy]

I’ve had strep for the 5th time in the last six or so months. I mean my god dude just chop my tonsils out at this point because I am SO tired of constantly being ill!

[Kaylah Welsh @welshkayy]

Ahhh genetic counselling for baby bean tomorrow! And then fingers crossed we get to start hormone injections and then it’ll be egg removal, egg retrieval and then the long awaited embryo implantation!

Watching the book of Revelation slowly unfolding right in front of us in real time is such a solemn, gut wrenching, nightmare. Yes, I know how the story ends and I do find peace and comfort in that. However, it doesn’t take away the unnerving foreknowledge of what’s yet to come.

[Kaylah Welsh @welshkayy]

Well, it’s finally official 🧸🤍 we’ve purchased a few vials from our sperm donor! It should arrive at our clinic in just a few days and then before long little baby Welsh will make their way into our word.

Can you spot our lovely little robin surprise?

[Kaylah Welsh @welshkayy]

Today I had the honor of helping my wife clean and tend to her father’s gravesite. (If you don’t know, robins hold the same symbolism in the UK that cardinals do in the US). A robin randomly landed above my wife’s head, sang the most beautiful, melodious song before flying away.

[Kaylah Welsh @welshkayy]

A little cheeky, all-knowing, “I’m always here. Thank you for visiting. Until next time, my dears.” And then the robin, our robin, flew away up into the sunny sky to the cheers & laughter of the local children playing rugby nearby. Needless to say I was a tearful, puddly mess 🥺

[Kaylah Welsh @welshkayy]

Had our first IVF appointment this morning and am so pleased to say it was smooth and easy! So far, so good ♥️

[Kaylah Welsh @welshkayy]

My world is a better, brighter, more beautiful place without you in it. My happiness no longer has to live in the shadows. My entire being has rid itself of the weight of you & all I feel is peace. Thank you,from the depths of my soul, for freeing me. Life is truly limitless now.

UK fam is here to celebrate the holidays and Helen’s birthday early with us now and then we leave for sunny Florida on Sunday to carry on the festivities with our US family for 5 whole weeks!! We are beyond blessed to be surrounded by so much love and warmth this year 🎄🎁🥰☃️

How incredibly apropos that you’d take the time to squeeze in a little dig at me on a post that could not have anything less to do with me…

[Kaylah Welsh @welshkayy]

If you’d have told me last year that today I’d be married to my best friend, living in England and now beginning our journey into motherhood, I would’ve thought you were insane…but here we are 🥹 and it’s better than anything I could’ve ever even thought to ask for.
