1. Breastfeeding is good for babies and moms. Infants that are breastfed get antibodies from their mothers against common illnesses. Breastfed babies have less chance of being obese as an adult.
Breastfeeding a baby lets the infant-mother pair bond in a very unique way. Mother’s who breastfeed lower their chances of developing breast cancer. Usually, mothers who breastfeed
lose their pregnancy weight more quickly and easily. The benefits of breastfeeding are numerous.
2. Was it enough? That was the question he kept asking himself. Was being satisfied enough? He looked around him at everyone yearning to just be
satisfied in their daily life and he had reached that goal. He knew that he was satisfied and he also
knew it wasn't going to be enough.
3. He ordered his regular breakfast. Two eggs sunnyside up, hash browns, and two strips of
bacon. He continued to look at the menu wondering if this would be the day he added something new. This was also part of the routine. A
few seconds of hesitation to see if something else would be added to the order before demuring and
saying that would be all. It was the same exact meal that he had ordered every day for the past
two years.
4. As she sat watching the world go by, something caught her eye. It wasn't so much its color or shape,
but the way it was moving. She squinted to see if
she could better understand what it was and where it was going, but it didn't help. As she continued to
stare into the distance, she didn't understand why this uneasiness was building inside her body. She felt like she should get up and run. If only she could
make out what it was. At that moment, she comprehended what it was and where it was heading, and she knew her life would never be the
same.
5. All he could think about was how it would all end.
There was still a bit of uncertainty in the equation, but the basics were there for anyone to see. No matter how much he tried to see the positive, it wasn't anywhere to be seen. The end was coming
and it wasn't going to be pretty.
6. Dave found joy in the daily routine of life. He awoke at the same time, ate the same breakfast and drove
the same commute. He worked at a job that never seemed to change and he got home at 6 pm sharp every night. It was who he had been for the last ten
years and he had no idea that was all about to change.
7. Patrick didn't want to go. The fact that she was insisting they must go made him want to go even
less. He had no desire to make small talk with strangers he would never again see just to be polite. But she insisted that Patrick go, and she would soon find out that this would be the biggest
mistake she could make in their relationship.
8. Indescribable oppression, which seemed to generate in some unfamiliar part of her
consciousness, filled her whole being with a vague anguish. It was like a shadow, like a mist passing across her soul's summer day. It was strange and
unfamiliar; it was a mood. She did not sit there inwardly upbraiding her husband, lamenting at Fate, which had directed her footsteps to the path which they had taken. She was just having a good cry all to herself. The mosquitoes made merry over her, biting her firm, round arms and nipping at her
bare insteps.
9. It was a simple tip of the hat. Grace didn't think that anyone else besides her had even noticed it. It wasn't anything that the average person would notice, let alone remember at the end of the day.
That's why it seemed so unbelievable that this little gesture would ultimately change the course of the
world.
10. A two-inch layer of freshly fallen snow covered the yard. Stacey peeked outside. To most, it would have
been a beautiful sight worthy of taking a photo to put on Instagram. For Stacey, it meant something different. The first snow of the year brought back
the witches as the fairies in the yard had to seek shelter to avoid the cold.
