Sweet Reese

The sacred and tragic memories of these last few days, will be knit as part of me forever.

It has been:

agonizing to be reminded what the weight of grief feels like.

amazing to watch b&c demonstrate more faith and courage than seems possible.

life-affirming to watch the support of family and friends.

saving to have the Lord's presence near us all.

I too will treasure the time I held my sweet niece, and am grateful to know she is a forever part of our family who we will rejoice to meet again someday.

I love you, Reese.

All my love to Brig, Cait, and the whole Wilson/Carter Clan. I'm sorry I didn't even know they were expecting. I love you Kate and your beautiful family.
