For this guy. Who has been a witness to it all, since I was 15. 🤟🏼🎢 Marriage is filled with duality - one side giving meaning to the other. Better or worse. Feast and famine. Faith and doubt. Although we usually want the same results, our methods are rarely if ever (ever) the same. 😆 Grateful he has never tried to change me, but still challenges and inspires growth just by being himself. I know he could be gone in an instant and I pray I get to pick up his socks for many years to come. #givethanks

The last week or so I have felt the weight of what

The last week or so I have felt the weight of what remains. It is heavy and so much felt like only mine to carry. I physically and figuratively slumped. I have felt resistance and forces hoping to tire me, silence me, and make me doubt to my very core. ⠀
⠀
I know now, there are no days off from finding the light. Inside yourself and in others. I have learned that we all have big brother angels fighting for us, rooting us on, and backing the bullies to the back of the bus. We just need to look up. LOOK UP, Emily! 🙏🏼 #givethanks #lovelikecollin photos by @jefralinn and @heathertelfordphotography

8+ MONTHS of the Woody guy! He has been everyone’s angel baby the last few weeks. Sleeping in many friends and family members’ arms, nuzzling into their necks and playing with their hair. I used to think it was because he loved me so much, but turns out he’ll do it to anyone who needs it. 😆 ⠀
Thank you for loving us all so perfectly Woody, you’ll heal the world with those big ol’ hands. ⠀

•••8 months, two teeth, crawling, pulling up to stand, obsessed with our new kitty, will eat anything. Including said kitty’s food. 🤢•••

TWO WEEKS. feels like everyday has been a lifetime

TWO WEEKS. feels like everyday has been a lifetime, how can it be? i look at that picture, the last one i took before i got The Call. who’s going to tell her what is ahead? we are not the same human anymore, she and i. grief and loss made sure of that. it is a club no one wants in on, but once you are there? no turning back. we know too much, we have felt too much. what will we do with this Collin shaped crater? we will fill it with love and we will RISE. ⠀
⠀
what has grief taught you? i am new to this, but i’ll be damned if it doesn’t make something more of me.

Happy Halloween from our family + our skeleton, Sc

Happy Halloween from our family + our skeleton, Scary Potter to yours!! What are your Halloween plans this year? I've been so curious as it seems to be so varied depending on where you live. If you need a pre-packaged, better-for-you snack for your festivities, grab these @annieshomegrown fruit snacks and bunny grahams, all my kids love it and I feel great about doling them out! #halloweenwithannies #sponsored #snackboard #grazingboard #halloweensnacks

The last day Collin and I spent together I had tex

The last day Collin and I spent together I had texted him to see if Quincey would come to the pool with me. I was still in the weeds having my 4th baby and didn’t feel up to the challenge to take them swimming alone. He wrote back, “YES! But we’re all coming!!” 🤍 Just him and I and our kids. ⠀
⠀
He took Raleigh down the slide 15 times at least. Swam with the boys, wowed them with his diving board tricks (a jack knife right under the lifeguard getting them drenched was his specialty) and then while he thought no one was watching headed over to the concession stand. ⠀
He prepaid for 50 snow cones and then went to the corner to laugh to himself. 😆 News traveled fast and soon a line of stoked kids trailed out to the gate. 🍧 There are moments when I slip into shame that the last day we spent together was 2 months ago. Sure we texted memes like it was our job, but it’s not the same right? How did I let that happen?! But then, I have to shake myself, and then I am overwhelmed with gratitude. It was the very best, last day.

••• This story was taken from the life sketch I wrote for our family’s memorial. It’s on my site. A love letter from a sister to her big brother. Sharing these stories has been such a big part of my processing this whole week, thank you for being here and listening. I hope you don’t feel like you have to keep sending condolences. I don’t want to bring anyone down!! I just love talking about him, and it’s brought me so much comfort. So thank you for that. ♡
