Happy Thanksgiving to everyone out there! While I have much to be sad and missing this Thanksgiving I also am blessed. I have an amazing husband whom has been my rock I have two beautiful children that are healthy and thriving and extended family and friends who check in on me often.
Thanksgiving was my moms holiday to host. She always put out an amazing table down with beautiful decorations. She was an amazing cook nothing my mom made on Thanksgiving was questionable. She always had something new to share and put love and thought into her menu always making sure everyone had their favorites not to mention her gravy was right from the turkey drippings.
I miss my mother everyday but days like today hold the most memories making them a little tougher than the rest.
Today instead of going to my parents home I will go to my cousins house. The new normal will be a tough reminder that I will never have my mothers amazing cooking and see her smiling face again.

Cancer does not discriminate
My daughter went to school this morning like any other
normal day but today the morning news was very sad. A first grade boy lost his battle with cancer
over the weekend. Raigan didn’t know
this young boy and I don’t know if she ever saw him in school but the news was
very sad.
This young boy only 7 years old had so much more to do in
life. I will never understand the great
losses that families feel every day to cancer.
Cancer does not discriminate; it takes the young, old and
everything in the middle.
My heart is very heavy for the family of this young boy
especially as the holidays approach. I hope
the family can find their “New Normal” as they go through the emotions of grief…
