Hoping all month for that positive pregnancy test is excruciatingly exhausting […]

Spring was FINALLY in the air. As I drove in sixty-degree sun to this couple’s home for their lifestyle newborn shoot, I couldn’t help but crank up my radio and roll with the windows down.

Today all started with a GoFundMe page. I had anxiously been following a little girl named, Adalynn who had been fighting for her life in a hospital in Tennessee. She opened my eyes today.

She said it was like any other day. Only this day was most definitely not. A familiar truck drove up to her tiny coffee stand as she approached the end of her morning barista shift. It was him. The man she served coffee to for the first time nearly three years before. Eric. She smiled […]

It has taken me a year and a half to write this. Not writing it made it almost seem like it didn’t happen. My mama didn’t die. I thought if I don’t write about it, I could just pretend she’s traveling and that she’ll be back at the end of the month. If I write […]
