Thanksgiving came and went, but I have been reminded over and over again that I have SO MUCH to be thankful for!! In the midst of preparing & eating a FEAST at my sister’s house on Thanksgiving day, hanging out and playing dress-up with my nieces on Friday, driving to & from my parents’/sister’s house, [...]
I have had a rough week. To be quite translucent with you (because I’m too emotionally raw right now to be completely transparent), it’s been one of the worst of my life. I cried just about every day last week (today may have been the first no-tears day, so far).
