READ LAWANDA'S LETTER AND VIDEO AFTER THE JUMP...
Hello,
I am a 26 year old mother of two. My daughter is 27 months old and my son is just 9 weeks old. I'm currently on maternity leave from work and I spend my days buried in diapers. My husband, a police officer, works the night shift and sleeps in the day. Therefore, I find myself alone with the children most of the time and although I love' em I have watched every episode of blues clues, yo -gabba -gabba, little bill, etc. to the point where my head is spinning and I am in desperate need of some adult companionship.
My husband and I have not been intimate in over three months. Although we are still extremely attracted to each other, we cannot seem to find the time to be together. He's asleep during the day and I don't seem to get any sleep at all. Not to mention I sometimes don't get to shower, lol. I actually found time to join a gym several weeks ago and have already lost about 10lbs. I would love to show off my new body to my husband, however I am always interrupted by a baby who is apparently attached to my breast and a toddler who refuses to take a nap.
I am afraid that if we don't get things heated soon, we may lose the spark for good. I don't want to grow apart form my husband/ best friend. Please help me.
Thank you,
Lawanda Innocent
