Returning to this in mid August.

These words resonate deeply. Especially your conversation with Sam about death. I have had a similar one with my eldest on multiple occasions. Grief is a bitch and it definitely rips you up

Inside. I oftentimes wonder if her little 2 year old heart, (that had to experience losing someone who held her probably within the hour after she was born) understands grief and processes it on an insanely deep level and her best method to process what she understands of death (on a deeper level than we might even understand her to be capable of) is to ask questions such as these. She’s 7 now, but we have been having these conversations since she was 4.

I know it’s been months since you have written this, but I am holding a space for you in my heart and giving you big hugs and commiserating alongside you, friend. ☺️
