I’m taking a few months off from work Apple News to fully absorb the fact that I MADE this human! Very grateful to have parental leave, and to have something other than the news keeping me up at night. I’ll be back in the summer! ✌️🥹❤️



Thanks Shumita Basu and Apple News for this great episode! It was fun and I hope it helps many kids and families!!! apple.news/A1bFeS71FQWK26…
