Original caption

39 weeks pregnant. My body is ACHING with every step. I would kill for a long hot bubble bath with no interruptions. 🥹 We haven’t had a chance to to take maternity pictures, so today will be a ‘selfcare day’ for my kids & I. Going to DIY everything, sons haircut, daughters hair, my hair, & whatever else I can do. I have to move our camper tomorrow & I’m still deciding on where to go for our next stay 😭 I’m trying my absolute hardest to stay strong for my kids ❤️‍🩹 #homeless #pregnant #momof3 #godisgood #domesticabuseawareness
