There is a cigar box that holds treasured trinkets from what feels like a past life. She adores them. They still break my heart... #loveyourlife #keepgoing #newfirsts #whyisitsocoldoutside #hurryupsunshine

For weeks he has been asking Santa for another MiP Robot, a black one, his fist Santa brought a few years ago... Santa’s sleigh was loaded but He’s a Prime member and has a heart. This boy, my boy rips he paper from his December obsession, smiles toothy from ear to ear. “Here Millie I got this for you, I have one so this is yours.” Of course I had something in my eye. Merry Christmas to you and yours ❤️🎄 #loveyourlife #alwaysanadventure #myboy #seven #newfirsts #Christmas

“Do you think our tree with all those missing lights is dead or alive?” Joe whispered with his head on my chest... Today marks a decade since John and I moved into the house we built. My first Christmas without that house. Our bedroom, the only one finished when we moved in, held a tiny table top tree. Wire and plastic With a strand of lights way to long for something so simple. It carried silver and blue beads in its branches coupled with ornaments from my grandmother’s tree. It was make-shift and perfect. Our whole lives were in that room, a new home, a wedding and kids and hardship and joy, and figuring it all out. That little tree was passed on and new bigger and better ones have come an gone until this year... The last tree John and I picked out together. Slowly burning out, a strand of lights each week like my heart this first Christmas without him. There’s a light that still burns fierce with love while the rest of my being feels dark. With that light comes hope and courage minute by minute somedays. These days. the ones so close to our next adventure as three. My Grandma’s ornaments still hang at the top and the last ten years hang a as memories below. “I don’t think it’s dead Joe, I just think it feels like us.” #loveyourlife #alwaysanadventure #newfirst #keepgoing

He reminds me so much of John. I think he’s supposed to. At a time when everything seems so muddy he makes everything so simple. #loveyourlife #newfirsts #alwaysanadventure #seven #myboy
