Heartbroken




Our beautiful boy, Liam was taken off the vent at 7:30pm last night, (the 25th of February), he passed away this morning (the 26th of February) at 10:40am. He is free of AT & reuniting w family in heaven today. There are no words that can truly express how we all feel this morning. Grateful to have had such an amazing soul as an integral part of this family for the last 19 years. Grateful for the outpouring of love we've felt from all of you. Grateful for the memories we each hold of Liam. And devastated by the loss of our sweet baby Liam. There is a piece of our hearts that is no longer with us & we feel its loss keenly. Walk, run, fly free our Liam. We love you so much, thank you for choosing our family as your forever family. We learned so much from you. Your smile, laugh, wit, heart, & hugs are greatly missed sweet boy. We love you now & forever.
❤️ Mom & Dad.

1461 Days Without You

  Cliffs of Moher - County Clare, Ireland My sweet Liam,       Another year has passed. It's been 4 years now and it still feels like it was just yesterday you were here with us, laughing and hugging. I am now in your room, using it as my office/craft room. Every time I walk into it I feel you all around me. If you remember, I was supposed to have the basement office we constructed before/during COVID but I am so much happier in your room surrounded by memories of you than I would be in that office. When I am in here it still feels like it's the Liam and Mom Show. Best buddies, always together. I am just over the halfway point as I earn my degree in political sciences and already feel incredibly burned out, it doesn't help that Trump and the GOP are once again in office running this country into the ground. But good news, Dad and I are heading to Italy on Monday for 11 days, it's almost our wedding anniversary.  Thirty years on March 10th. Kier and Sam just cele...

Finding my voice again

Just over 5 years ago I decided to step away from FB & Twitter.  Then, like now, I stepped away because of the vitriol on social media.  At that time, it was purely the political vitriol that I couldn't stand anymore.   Now there is even more of that than there ever has been before.  At least in my lifetime.  And yet it is politics that is one of the many ingredients that are pushing me back to my journaling roots today.  The problem is that I've also spent so many years trying to avoid vitriol being aimed at myself or rather my posts that my voice has become quiet...figuratively.  I haven't felt strong or brave enough to post my own opinion for too long.  I have so many friends & family members that are ultra-conservative, making being the minority in a group of incredibly strong opinions & personalities, difficult for me to speak up.  In other words, I have become a master at avoiding conflict/confrontations.  My life ...

Ups, downs, and all arounds

Today was the last day (really 2 hours, not a whole day, don't get me started) of school for my 2 youngest.  Kier finished last week, Liam was done by Tuesday of this week, M & N today at 10:30.  We made it through another seemingly endless school year.  Yay us!  We officially crossed the finish line for the next couple of months we are on our own schedule, whatever it might be.  Yay!!!!!  I'll admit, there have been a few times this year (really every year at this point) where I wasn't sure we were going to make it.  Excitably relieved we're done.  So here is where I post the beginning of school year pics vs the end of school year pics for each of my kids....I should really post before & after shots of myself as well.  I doubt I will but I should. ;) It always amazes me how much they change in just one school year.  Kier's before was rushed & he refused to hold up...
