No place I would rather be for NYE than staring at my little beauty, listening to the pouring rain, while breastfeeding at a rest stop on our way home from visiting with family in Maryland.
This sweetness is such a wonderful rest stop in my life. Nourishing and healing a year that was heavy with anxiety.
Thank you to everyone who has been by our side. Everyone who has held out their hands, lent us their ears, and felt brave enough to ask the tough questions that weighed on their hearts and mind. We see you.
Thank you @brandon.of.bjerke for our marriage. Our relationship has been tested so much over the past two years. We've moved through tough shit: anger, fear, pain, rage, despondency, boredom. Literally more than ANYONE we know. We've brought forward a beautiful little boy and the sweetest little girl-- one there and one here. We've let ourselves work through the worst growing pains possible with just a far off hope to hold onto. We've (somehow) focused on our love and our love of laughter to get us through it all. And our faith. Definitely our faith.
Thank you Callum and Bea. You two are in this together. Baby Boy brought forth his Sister with so much grace and design that it feels like it happened for a reason beyond our understanding. Thank you for breaking us open and healing our hearts. For showing us that no matter what we feel, it's real and needs to be felt. Thank you for growing us the fuck up.
And thank you to ME. For being: Real. Honest. Challenging. Changeable. Hardworking. And unafraid. Glad I got those far off eyes that focus on the future and fall in love with the present 🤩🤩 To the new New Year 👏👏
