Happy Friendversary With Jennifer DeVito

Oh Facebook. Curse you and your complex algorithms.

Bereaved Parents Made Me Angry

First and foremost, shame on me for not posting in a very long time.

Second, I’m ashamed that my Welcome Back post has a negative tone, but this is something that really upset me.

Like many of you, when I wake up in the morning, I take a few moments before my shower to check my phone. I review my emails, the news, Instagram, and Facebook. As I was scrolling thorough Facebook, I came across a post from the Bereaved Parents of the USA. Granted, I am not a bereaved parent, but this is the parent organization of a lot of helpful resources, and the organization that I have presented for a few times in the past.

As I was scrolling through my feed, I was dumbstruck by their post.

Mom, If you’re reading this,
this is the post that I was telling you about.

I don’t want this to ruin your day…

 

CONFIDENTIA

Sometimes, things happen with such remarkable coincidences, there is no way it can just be due to chance…

Thanksgiving

On Thanksgiving, I had a very simple Facebook status:

Today, as always, may we be thankful for all that we have.

Thirteen of you “liked” my status, and some of you even left kind comments.

Thank you ❤

Happy (Belated) Birthday Jen!

Thursday was Jennifer’s birthday, her 20th birthday, and the 2nd year we celebrated without her. I opted to go to work, and did my best to not dwell on the circumstances of the day. I got teary-eyed at some points, but I didn’t let it consume me. I even wore my pink confidence shirt to work as a little extra niff-love.
