Family
I have not wanted to write this post, but I cannot have this blog without sharing this past week. My uncle Stan (my mama's brother) died last week, leaving so many sad, sad friends and family. It was such a gift to get to spend time with his girls this last week, opening my heart and experiencing a bit of their journey. So much more sadness and healing on the way. I miss my cousins already and hope to see them again soon.

Jess, so sorry for your loss. A virtual hug to you my friend ...
I am sorry that your uncle passed away. It is nice to see smiling, celebrating-life faces surrounding a difficult time. Family coming together can be so healing in sad situations and really highlight the family's strengths (especially when there are babies around to remind us of the "circle":)
