The Weight of Grief

February 11, 2026

All day I have longed for this moment. . A need to write.. For whats boiling inside to pour out through my fingers.. Its hard to get a quiet moment alone in this house.. (so incredibly grateful for this simple truth) .. Tomorrow marks 12 years since I have last touched the one who made […]
