weddedglitz asked: I have so many questions I'd love to ask you! I'll limit myself to 3 :)

1) Any beach recommendations in North Carolina? My husband and I just had a baby and for our first family vacation, we decided that we'll be taking a little road trip down to N.C. this summer! (We live in D.C.) Also - favorite BBQ joint? We're always up for BBQ detours.
2) Have...

uselessmine asked: Before you met Brent, did you ever get scared that you might not find the one? Because lately I'm terrified that I won't find the man destined to be my husband and the father of my child. Its pretty much my life's goal. You're living my dream.

travels-with-charley asked: I think it's very inspiring that you gave birth to Everly naturally, but in trying for your second child, do you think you'll go natural the second time?

littlecageofmine asked: Hi Melissa! Your outlook on life is so inspiring and it's one of the things I admire most about you and your blog. Does remaining positive and upbeat come naturally to you or is it something you have to work at?

muchlovekris asked: So my boyfriend argues that being from North Carolina automatically means that you cannot be classy; he says 'classy is a function of how close you live to livestock, the closer you are to livestock the less classy you are'. He argues that it's 'science'. However, you seem like a classy broad, and since you too are from 'ol Carolina, I was wondering how you would...

Our magical weekend in paradise.
Brent and I have had the beautiful fortune of meeting some truly incredible people here in the city. People who forever be a part of our lives and our story. When we rented our little apartment over a year ago, we had no idea just how special our stay in the Golden Gate flat would be. Our landlord, Celia, and her boys have become like a second family to us. We’ve spent many afternoon...

butterfliesforever asked: I know i've already asked a question, but I just admire you so. Do you have any "going on a first date" advice? I've been dating and meeting new people in my city and I feel like i've been blowing it. You seem so confident so I thought I'd ask you and maybe some of that confidence might rub off on me.

travels-with-charley asked: How has your marriage been affected by the birth of Everly? Does it make being with your husband much more fulfilling? I've always thought that when a child is introduced to two new parents, it creates different people, more loving, more patient people, have you found this to be true? What is the hardest part of having a new baby? (sleep deprivation, ubiquotous burp cloths, etc).Sorry for the...
