Mark Zuckerberg shared the photo above announcing that they are now expecting after several prior miscarriages. He called their infertility journey, "a lonely experience", writing;
"You feel so hopeful when you learn you're going to have a child. You start imagining who they'll become and dreaming of hopes for their future. You start making plans, and then they're gone. It's a lonely experience. Most people don't discuss miscarriages because you worry your problems will distance you or reflect upon you -- as if you're defective or did something to cause this.

How To Have A Stress-Free Wedding 101 - Infographic
by Melissa Rae

I really think a big part of achieving a stress free wedding is being organized, and delegating tasks can play a major role in helping you keep on top of things! This includes stuff like the groom helping out, friends and family chipping in, or even just using some helpful apps. It's hard to arrange everything yourself and it will end up driving you mad!

Photos - Buhari Meets President Obama In The White House Oval Office
President Buhari and his delegation are currently in the United States and they met with President Obama, VP Joe Biden in the White House Oval Office today. yesterday, they were visited by former US Secretary of State, Madeline Albright at the Blair House where the Nigerian president and his entourage are staying. I am kind of disappointed that there seems to be no women in the group traveling with the president, but I'll wait before jumping to negative conclusions.
Anyways, ahead of the meeting, Buhari wrote asking for patience as he takes his time to battle Boko Haram and corruption in the country. See an excerpt from his article and photos from the visit below...
