Review

This is a must read for everyone! I do not have any children and this brought many tears to my eyes. Andrea makes you feel like you have experienced every moment, from the time you are pregnant to child birth and all the emotion that goes along with that. Simply beautiful, I felt caught by every flowing word.

From the Author

My new chapbook titled Waiting is a collection of ghazals recording the emotional journey of my pregnancies -- anticipation, trepidation, stress, change, loss and joy. These meditations are intensely personal and organic, but I believe they also resonate on a universal level. These poems are for mothers, mothers-to-be, and anyone who is privileged to be a witness to the journey of growing a human being, the shifting in the lives of parents-to-be, and welcoming these souls into the world.
