I was reluctant to trade in my fit bit for an apple watch, mostly because my mom had fit bit. We were able to easily share stats and compete and I liked that. The other reason, I am a little adverse to change.

The only thing I knew about the apple watch was it had to be charged a lot.  I could go a week without charging my fit bit and I loved that.  But there was a big downside with the fit bit. I am rather hard on things. I had to replace it every year, and almost always right after the warranty expired.

Finally I listened to my hubby, and I made the switch.  I really need to just start listening to hubby from the get-go. I would save so much time and energy.

You know one of my favorite features of the apple watch?  The button on the watch that makes your phone beep when you lose it!!   This is a game changer mamas! I can’t even tell you how many times a day I lose my phone? If I am really in a pickle, I can press a button on my apple watch and my phone will make noise, even on silent mode! Genius.  

INITIALLY I tried not to use this feature. I don’t know why? Maybe searching for my phone keeps me fit? Or its a good punishment for misplacing it in the first place? Whatever weird, unconscious reason, only when I was at my wits end did I press the magic ringing button.

BUT, now I am giving myself less time to search for my missing phone, and I am hitting the alert button right away. The convenience is just too temping and too easy. Oh the joys of modern technology.

You know what I don’t need an alert button for mamas?

Infertility and IVF has been my hardest life trial, Losing all 13 of my babies was absolutely devastating.  In the aftermath of this tragedy, the bright side is knowing my babies are waiting for me in Heaven. As a mama is there any greater feeling in the entire world, than to know your babies are safe, loved, and happy beyond your wildest dreams? Nothing beats this assurance: NOTHING.

In an unpredictable and scary world, I am glad I don’t have to have an alert button on my 13 little angels. I don’t have to lose my babies ever again; once was enough! One day, my husband and I will be reunited with our little angels. We have our heavenly reservation confirmed: Party of 15.

The greatest accomplishment of my life

 has become the greatest heartache of my life

 has become the greatest blessing of my life.
