India, I am a 43 year old woman who just also happens to be paralyzed. I was paralyzed in a car accident when I was 4 years old in 1985. I'm not going to bore you with any of my personal medical history or go into my mindset before I got pregnant. I was blessed to be able to have 2 children with my husband at the time when I was 23 and 25. My kids are 20 and 17 years old now. I've been going through personal health issues since 2011 because of being paraplegic. I have always chosen to have a positive attitude. I've refused to let the ugly and negative dictate me. You will always find happiness if you choose to remain positive. Of course, there will be moments in life where you'll be sad and even so angry you could bite an iron nail in half, but don't let those times define your whole way of thinking. I am so proud of you and your journey. I am so thankful that you're sharing your journey with so many others who may need to hear your story to feel heard or seen. 💞
Wow wonderful comment❤
That's amazing you are so positive. Our cousin dived off a rock and became the same as you. He was always positive and said things like I can live with this, the alternative is to not be here. I have Multiple sclerosis, quite bad but I do feel lucky. I'm still here. And thankful for that. Lots of love to you. XxX
Yes the darker blonde!!! It flatters tan skin when you have sandy brown hair with pops of blonde!! Like surfer girl blonde!!! And we have the same eyes!! I definitely think darker is stunning with baby blue eyes ❤
Go for the old money blonde! You will look amazing! I agreed 1000% with choosing joy...I had 4 losses and many other hardships and though some days it was impossibly hard, choosing joy, laughing, and focusing on God and His incredible mercy and grace was the only thing that got me through.
India, God is using you to speak hope to others. I’m currently experiencing a miscarriage after trying to get pregnant for a year. It’s devastating. My husband and I decided to take a break after this. “Don’t waste the wait” is exactly the hope and encouragement I needed in this moment. Thank you! ❤❤ Praying for you through your journey!
🙏🏼 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I needed to hear “don’t waste your wait” thanks woman!!
You should try your hair more natural as you mentioned, because when you get pregnant will probably stop bleaching it, so if your start now it the transition will go unnoticeable.
I NEEDED THIS TODAY. I’m studying for the bar, I don’t know how I will afford the next couple of months, I am waiting to reap the fruits of my hard work and thank you for telling me to enjoy the wait. I will go through these times appreciating this worry and use these times as a learning lesson for the time when I won’t be in financial distress. I am also learning to re-direct the emphasis of my energy and to push through and study for the bar and be able to put aside all the collateral issues I have to deal with. Thank you India 💖😘
I would love to see your natural hair color! God does not make mistakes! ❤️
India!! I think the old money blonde would look amazing 🥰
Old money blonde is my vote, but you can't go wrong with either.
I always think that when it comes to hair color, the closest to natural looks best. So old money blonde it is! (Your eye color looks beautiful btw, don't be afraid to accentuate that 😘)
I like think the darker coloring will look incredible on you.
Girl you are using the heartbreak and struggles that yall have been through to not only better yourself, but better those around you! Praise God for the beautiful mindset you are choosing to have!
Yes! Striking eyes with dark hair is gorgeous!
OLD MONEY BLONDE 👏👏👏👏
Someone once told me “find joy in the wait” which I struggled to understand back then. After trying to conceive for 13 years, my son is about to be 2mo old. He is my miracle baby. And even though the wait was hard, as I look back on my wait, I realize my husband and I did find a lot of joy in our marriage, even if I didn’t realize it in the moment.
So very happy for you that you have your miracle baby. Congratulations!!!
After 4 back to back losses last year, losing my mom and my husband grandpa we took 6 months off - I stopped testing every month because mentally I was beyond exhausted and could not handle another negative test. I’m now 13 weeks and the anxiety has subsided significantly. Sending you all the baby dust and praying for you in this ttc journey❤️ you guys will have that blessing, god always blesses us when we’re least expecting it🙏🏻🫶🏻
Going completely back to your natural hair color may not be as scary as you think. I stopped bleaching my hair a few years ago and when I look in the mirror now I have no idea why I ever bleached my hair. ☺️
I had 4 miscarriages before having my son .although it broke my heart at that time but now i hardly ever remember it anymore. He brings soo much joy in my life that the harsh memories seem to vanish away as time goes on.
Yes go darker. Natural color with a carameley honey highlight
yes definitely go darker! I think it would suit you sooooo much!! sorry only 2 mins in so this is all im commenting on :P
Yes , I love your mottos. You are definitely a sister Christian because we believe the same things. Life is short, I will be 60 in 10 months . Listen to this lady, she is wise beyond her years. Blessings, prayers, and love to you and your husband India! 🤩🙏💛
In those close up near the end you can really see your natural colour and it looks amazing on you! So glamorous!!
awwww that is so so kind
I think with your gorgeous blue eyes your natural color will really make the pop🤷🏻♀️
Doll, your gonna look gorgeous no matter what color you’re hair is.
Darker blonde is my vote 😊
YES OLD MONEY BLOND OR JUST STRAIGHT UP BROWN!!!
I'd try the old money blond. You can always go back later to do the full blond. I think it looks really cool when someones eyes really stand out with dark hair.
Go for the old money blonde! It will look great with your curls. And your eyes are such a beautiful, unique feature, don't be afraid to let them stand out!
I’m so glad to hear you are not going to waste your wait. Go you. You’re gonna get pregnant. You keep trying. Literally everyone I start following ends up pregnant. I wanted to have another baby and instead I ended up getting divorced. I’ll keep you in my prayers that a rainbow baby is on their way to you. In God’s time.
Your natural hair will look amazing! They were wonderfully and fearfully made for you that way. Why being scared? Embrace it! ♥ Also, I love seeing you put make up and looking just as good as you did without any! You are such a natural beauty, your natural features are meant to look incredible. Your eyes are amazing and they are meant to shine! Get that contrast, goddess ♥
Your eyes are in no way scary . . . they are stunning!
You are an angel ❤❤❤
YES TO THE HAIR! At the end of the day, it's just hair, you can always go back to blonde blonde if you don't like it. But I think you can rock it. Ok, back to the video. 🫶
Hi, me again, 🤣 I laughed too hard when you put that mascara on and it went from 0-1000 real quick! 🤣 I hate spending money on mascara but I might need to give that one a go. Haha
As for gardening, you're gonna love it! I started last year with a small 15x30 foot bed and by this year, I asked my husband to till me one four times the size. It's now 1600 sq foot with the in ground and raised bed area and I'm obsessed.
This is SO TRUE!!!!! If I don’t like it I can go back !?! Thank you for this reminder that it’s not that serious lol
@@indiabatson26Girl, I get it. My hair is my favorite feature. I got an undercut years ago and almost immediately hated it. 🤣 Took 3 years to get my hair all the same length again! But sometimes you just gotta go for it and see what happens! You never know if you'll love it or hate it until you try.
India, how true it is that we need to live in the day God has given us. Joy and Gratitude are choices! Greatfulness makes us joyful people. I was reading Matthew and came to the part where Jesus teaches us not to worry. It’s so simple! It’s so simple yet so profound.
Old money blond baby!!! Also what an amazing reunion you will have with your two babies! In heaven !!! Praying for a baby for to hold here on earth ❤️
I can’t WAIT to meet them one day and spend eternity with them 🫶 in the meantime on this blip on earth praying for a child to love on here on earth ❤
Go for the old money blonde!
Hey beautiful big sis! Praying for you and your family and I think the old money blond would complement your features the best!💖
Definitely try the hair idea. If you hate it it's easy to change it to your regular blonde. Do old money blonde. Go for it. Life's too short to not try the hair ideas.
The root color, light brown looks great.
I loved your speech on not wasting the wait! What an inspiration you are.
Speaking from the other side of the ttc/pregnancy journey after 2 losses. One thing I did to not waste my wait and keep my hopes up while waiting for my rainbow baby was to make 1 baby purchase every month that I got a period instead of a positive pregnancy test. It was a way to celebrate and manifest what was to come in the future, no matter how long the wait would be, turning the negative of a pregnancy test/period into a positive 💕
Yes 🙌🏻 love your message on joy! As far as hair I think “old money” or “lived in” blond would be beautiful on you.
Not wasting my waiting time and choosing joy, I love this message! 💛
Yes for old money blonde! ❤
India YESSSSS go darker!
Old money blonde!!! Do it!!
You don’t know how much I needed this message. Thank you
Choosing joy is the way to go! I love your positivity ☺️🙏🏻
My husband got me those same overalls for Christmas. They are awesome!
You’re such a blessing and wonderful person and have been such an inspiration in my life. I just love your videos and you are the epitome of joy!!! Sending baby dust and prayers your way on your fertility journey. You got this!!!
I think the new trend would actually suit you better! 😊 don’t be afraid of this change ❤
Your eyes are stunning!!!! Go dark hair with light highlights! It’ll look amazing on you!
Also I’ve been praying for you and Danial in this journey❤
With your beautiful blue eyes, I definitely like it a bit darker hair look
Going through my own infertility journey, almost 1 yr now and I feel this so deeply. Thank you for sharing your story and reminding me not to waste the waiting!
Old money blonde all the way!! Embrace the white walker eyes! I wish I had them eyes…. STUNNING ❤
I needed this pep talk! Thank you.
I had a miscarriage recently, started trying again and in a very similar situation. God is good and his will is greater than mine!
I really hope gardening starts to catch on because of the mental health benefits, I’m 30 and absolutely love it - my colleagues think it’s strange - which is sad because they don’t know what they’re missing! Tips for planning your garden - smelling the roses when in bloom is magical. You also need herbs so that you still have something that smells amazing when not much is in bloom (but don’t plant mint or thyme in the ground - pots only!!).
You are such a role model to me. I’ve been watching your videos since I was about 16 (I’m 23 now) and it started because I have the same hair and body style as you. You helped me learn how to love my body and my hair and embrace myself for who I am. You have helped me grow so much as a woman and I am so thankful for that. I never had a sister to look too. Thank you for everything that you do here on CZcams :)
This is one of your best videos ever I think. You give great advice
DO IT GIRL its gonna look so good
Old money gurlll 😍
Also rooting for & praying for y’all in your fertility journey!🙏🏻 Thank you for being a light!!💛
Yes! Old money blonde will be beautiful!
Hey India, I love your message about not wasting the wait and needed to hear that. I keep thinking "when I finally get pregnant THEN everything will be good..." Also, I randomly got into gardening recently too! I don't have a yard like you, but instead of "waiting" for that, I'm making the most of my little patio and enjoying it. 😊🤍
Yes to the face framing and spreading out the highlights. I think the color dimensions will be beautiful on you!
OMG IS IT TIME FOR THE OLD MONNY 💸💸💸💸!?!?!
YES old money blonde!!
YASSSSS
MONEY BLONDE 🎉
You would look GLORIOUS In any color!!
I just not two hours ago went through something very traumatic. Your words of choosing Joy were helpful and appreciated. I think I needed this video.
Also praying very hard for a happy healthy baby this time around!
I’m so proud of you for having this mindset! Joy is a choice, it’s a hard choice to make during these times but you persevere❣️
You are so so inspiring and such a beautiful soul. I always look forward to your updates. I know God has a plan for you and your husband! I’m praying for you❤️
Yes old money blond with face framing Also you arr so right about your frame of mind and choosing joy. I know it's hard to see your friends who are pregnant or just had babies but I also know how kind and loving you are and that you chose joy for them because you would never wish the pain you went through on them. You have the best heart india!!!
I needed to hear this as I'm manifesting a new job. Thank you for the reminder.
Go darker. Your makeup is snatched!
You ARE glowing, you’re always so pretty but today I was like damn you go girl🥰!! Please drop the skincare routine🥺?
Yes old money blonde please!!!!
aww india, i’m so so proud of you. i can only imagine how painful and traumatic it must be to have gone through one pregnancy loss, let alone back to back pregnancy losses. i’m here for you and i would love to be friends!! ❤❤ i love you so much and im so proud of how far you’ve come
I just love watching u!! U r so refreshing n inspiring to watch. Dont u worry god has a plan for all of us. I love that ur holding on to JOY. What u said just makes so much sense don’t wait do what u have to do now!! Thanks for sharing see u next time. N just know I’m praying for u n Daniel🙏🙏🙏
I say do the darker blonde! I think it’ll be pretty, but also, if you hate it you can lighten it back up🤷🏽♀️
Old money blonde!!!!
Yes India! Yes to the hair! It will be stunning with your eyes, not white walker at all 🥰
Love you India!! I look forward to your videos so much ❤ thank you for being here
@@nerm1166 tHank YOU for watching 🩷🩷
I loved this video and feel super motivated now to use my time better^^I‘m a procrastinator and really need a kick in the booty sometimes to finally do all the stuff I need and want to do. Thank you, India ❤
“Don't waste the wait”
Girl, I needed to hear this!
yess India! I am praying for you and daniel. You both deserve this and more
I’m so, so happy for you that your crepe myrtle is blooming. How incredibly special and beautiful ❤️ The part of your video about not wasting the wait really spoke to me. I am in my early 30s and have never had a relationship (for no reason other than lack of opportunity), and have wanted one since I was in high school. And am now waiting for my person. I’ve tried dating apps and they just don’t work for me. I deleted it today. I’ve just decided there’s really nothing I can do. So I like the not wasting the wait idea. Because I don’t know how long I’ll be waiting and I’ve already waited so long, but for me I would say not wasting the wait means doing things that fill my life and going after those (like backpacking and other outdoors things that I want to try really badly). Sending strength and hope to you for many joyful moments in this time.
We love India in her gardening area! Hope the neighborhood people have chilled about your fence. 😝.
I love your insight! Hold on and go for your new hair color 💪🏻 💁🏻♀️
India yes old money blond do it ! Your gorgeous you can pull anything off ! Love to see a new look hair grows vak no worries live girl! Also 😂a wise woman once said grab life by the cahones 😂you got this!
Yes change the hair colour up!! It’ll look amazing 😍
I love your eyes! Anything that makes them standout is not scary, but highlighting one of your most striking features. I vote to embrase it and go with the more natural "old money blonde" look!
Do it! Go darker! The examples you showed will look so good on you!❤
Love this! Joy is something you choose! Yes old $ blonde!
I will be praying for you and your husband for a successful pregnancy!! I like your hair blonde but also I think low maintenance is a good idea too , your bueatiful no matter what you choose❤
I am honestly SO torn between telling you old money and darker. I must confess I LOVE very defined contrasts so I’m biased toward the dark. I think darker hair and those incredible blue eyes of yours... most gorgeous girl on the planet
I love your hair but I think old money blonde would be so good!
You're an inspiration India. I love how transparent you are ❤
Thank you so much for following along the journey and being so encouraging and kind ❤❤❤❤
I think your eyes will look amazing with dark hair ❤
Will be praying for you on this journey India!!
Yes!!! Old money 💴 blonde
Right here with you on the TTC journey, hit a year TTC in the middle of a prolonger MMC, thank you so much for sharing 💕 also really trying to use this wait for a purpose and try to enjoy it
And I vote darker hair!
I would literally die if you went darker - from how gorgeous you’d look! Like a warm chestnut brown???!!
You're looking pretty, pretty + don't be scare of those gorgeous eyes & show them off!!! ❤
