Long Overdue Update
It has been a while since I did a post on how I am doing or updated y’all on my life these last several months. I have been so busy with work and life that I often forget that I started this blog not only as a way to express myself but also as a way to keep friends, family, and those who have been following my life these past four years updated.

There Are No Words
It has been a while since I have written a blog post. To be honest, I’m not even sure if I’ll finish this one. I’ve had writers block these last two months and with my parents and Luke’s family here I really just wanted to be present while I had them around.

The Hardest Two Weeks of my Life
I honestly don’t know how to start this blog post. There are no words that can describe the loss of Luke and the emptiness I feel without him.

I Don’t Know Where to Start
I’ve been putting off writing this blog post for a couple weeks now. My heart and my head feel like they are drowning.
