Wow! All the birth stories were amazing. I was about to respond to each one, but I might get kicked off for flooding the thread (more than I am already!). :giggle: I loved reading them all.

I have to comment and hug
:hugs:
@Syren , @Sarah03 , @eleanors36, @Alexa5 and anyone else ever on the receiving end of hurtful words for having no children, not enough or too many children. We all have reasons for our choices or lack of choices, and I hope mean people will stay out of your way. Some questions are too personal to ask. You never know what someone is going through. I lost my first baby before I told everyone; so only a few knew. Everyone else kept asking what was taking so long because they knew or assumed correctly that I wanted children someday and the clock was ticking. It was painful even to hear what a fun mom they thought I would be. I didn't know if I could even have one. All of you be proud for sticking with what you know is the right choice. Anyone here who cannot have children and wants to, I send a special hug to you too. This was my agony once upon a time. Surround yourself with goodhearted people. :heart: It's important to love the lives we have right now. I wish I could go back in time and tell my younger self all of this! :smile:

I'm sorry and your not wrong people just don't know... When my daughter M/c back in October she really didn't tell anyone heck no one really knew anyways that she was pregnant and of coarse because DGS is getting older people kept bugging her on when was she having another....

I suppose because in my life i have made many choices people have criticized as i have aged i now just laugh at the stupid lol. Live your life for you, those who matter typically have value to their input and those that don't can keep running their mouths.
 
So anyone coveting any particular color for a possible new spring/summer bag? I’m still thinking cobalt/sapphire since House mentioned it. Now it just needs to be released. [emoji14]

No, i started my year off with bag selling.. bought one and am pretty sure that is that for(buying) ... i don't truly use colorful bags... i definitely do not need to purchase them.

My wallet is a pretty pale purple that i was given for my birthday and while i have chosen to continue to use it throughout winter it is most definitely "spring/summer" enough...

Instead i'll live through all of you guys and your fun colors for the new seasons lol.
 
My family is very supportive of my choice to be child free and there is no shortage of others children so maybe that helps [emoji4]

That most definitely helps, as i said before only those who truly matter should be of importance to you after that others can have whatever thoughts they want on your life choices, you'll never please everyone anyways.
 
I love hearing everyone’s wishlist for Spring bags! [emoji7]

I’ve realized most of my work bags are all Fall and Winter colors haha Although that won’t stop me from using them in the warmer months!

I think that is pretty typical(darker work bags) i know my daughters is a signature brown/darker brown combo tote. She won't consider brighter colors because of dirt lol.

New Charlie size and style! It has a LV vibe to me. Looks like it could hold my 15” laptop.

I’ll be watching for this to hopefully be released in navy signature. The regular navy Charlie is on my watched list but this would add a little variety since I already have the tan version. Right now I only have my spooky eyes market tote for days I need to carry a lot and I love it but I wouldn’t want to walk into a meeting with it [emoji23] The signature items seem to never go on sale even at department stores so I may have to wait quite a while for a deal like with my other Charlie. I can wait and my ideal color hasn’t even been released yet lol

Ah, C'mon your spooky eye tote may just keep them on their totes... :lol: The colors of that one remind of my ODD's work tote except hers is a more basic style with zipper top..

There’s a specific green I’m looking for and I haven’t found it yet. I want more of a blue green than yellow. But I don’t want it to be too dark either but not too light haha when someone makes this perfect shade... I’ll be right there.
Do you like Legacy emerald? There was also a gorgeous green Madison Isabelle and Juliette. I used to have a patent Madison Hailey in a beautiful green.

I remember loving that dark green Ace but the design of it was poor.. hard to get in/out of that is why i ended up buying my Grace instead...

Ohhh these are sooo pretty. Especially in the crinkly shiny leather of the Madison line. I really think it’s one of those things that will catch my eye as soon as I see it.

Lol on their totes! I love it [emoji23]

When I was younger oh boy the brighter the better ha but as I’ve gotten older earth tones are more my jam. My sunflower rogue is probably my “craziest” bag I own currently!
