We Made it (BARELY) through the first year and September 2021!

We are all so very glad to have the first year September 2021 behind us! So much pain, so much sadness and so much love all in the same space. We miss our girl in so much of what we do and want to do in life. But, the pain is not always suffocating and debilitating like it was for so long. Instead of not being able to engage in life most days we have fought to start living life on some days. I am back managing New Vision Counseling but still not seeing patients.
Our health is better in some ways and we still struggle mightily in others. The hunt for a more permanent place to live continues as we try to find some place that isn’t crazy expensive in this inflated housing market. Our family still feels like we have three legs to live life on instead of four without our sweet Berklee. But, through much grieving, help from others and God, we are beginning to live again.
We still need much prayer and loving support as we enter the holidays. They have always been the sweetest time for us. I took off from work more and we enjoyed soooo many holiday traditions with family and friends. From movies to looking at lights to Christmas Eve service at Life Church we loved this time of year. Now, we are going to move towards re-engaging back into some more of our traditions. We are going to see Tanda’s family for Thanksgiving. We are going to see more family this year. We are going to Life Church and looking at lights. Thank you for your prayers as we have not seen many of these people nor done these activities since Berklee was with us on Earth. And going through something for the first time can be extremely sad and painful.
Happy Thanksgiving and thanks for the continued love and prayers as we continue to fight for joy and life this side of heaven without our amazing
