Hope dies because we have what we hoped for. Faith dies because we now believe and see. But love? It never dies. I told Ellie that J and B took all the love that she gave them with them. That not one ounce of her love was lost on them. And, I believe they left their love planted in every heart they encountered. Love is our best, eternal investment with one another. #jbthankful #henrinouwen #breadforthejourney #dailydevotional
Some days, you throw the routine out the window and do pedicures instead. I love just being with her.
17 months closer and I’m getting tired of counting. You know that moment when you have your newborn, “she’s 3 days old,” you tell everyone. Then, we stick stickers or circle numbers on blankets to declare, “He 4 months....he’s 8 months.” At one year, we give them a cake to rub on their face. But as they get older, the newness of their arrival wears off and we no longer count their life by days or months, but in years and milestones. But what do you count after they are no longer physically here? Will I spend every month for the rest of my life eating Culver’s on the 13th? I had to look back at posts to remember how many months Jay has been gone. I don’t even know anymore because it has just settled. He is gone. But I still say, “I can’t believe he’s gone,” Even yesterday I had to bounce my eyes away from the little boys section at Target I no longer have any reason to be in. I told Jut I can’t even imagine living 40 years more without them. I can’t believe it was only 11 years of my life with J, only 9 with B. That’s insane how short it was. And, how many of those days felt so long. If I could only go back and tell myself not to miss it. If only I paid better attention. But I look back and realize I didn’t miss it, I just want more. And that’s the best part-I will get more. I am getting more, right now as love continues. I just can’t touch them, yet. I will hold Jay, like this picture, again. I will see him and 40 years-or however long I live without his physical presence -will seem so insignificant in light of eternity. So I will continue counting as long as I need to, knowing that I will seek what I have already found. #monthscloser #17 #jbthankful
I love this post my dear friend, @adevo5 posted. It really can be a hard day for some. So just know, you are seen and not forgotten today. 🌸💕

In a world full of striving and noise, it’s good to be reminded of these truths. #TheGiftOfBeingYourself
