You can never prepare for the heartbreak of losing your child, even when you know the time will come, there is never enough time. I miss him so much everyday, and will for the rest of my life. You're not supposed to live longer than your babies. Life is not fair. He dreamed of being a police officer when he grew up, he just never got to grow up. 💔

Lets just be honest. Lets just be real...
All the traditions and little surprises meant the most!
I hope my kids look back and remember how loved they were, not because of the gifts they got but because of the magic Mommy created for them. ❤️

He has no idea how much that sweaty hug meant! Senior year is racing by way too fast! He only has one more game left!

Ten years ago today, we received the devastating news that our baby boy had an inoperable brain tumor. Ten years ago, childhood cancer became a harsh reality for our family. Ten years ago today, my heart shattered into pieces and has never been whole again. 💔

Was going through files on my email because I haven't deleted anything in years... its hard. I can't just blindly delete when there are things like this with our sweet angel. He always had all of us laughing... 🥹
Enjoy our embarrassing family introduction, but really enjoy our silly boy. We all miss him so very much!
