Tomorrow marks 10 yars since i lost my brother michael. I have a hard time wrapping my head around it still. I feel like he has missed so much in my life. Meeting my daughter who is 5 now, watching my son grow up. Watching me change and grow. things are so different then they were 10 years ago.

Im well, life is beautiful. this part seems so hard.  I get to help others not end up like my brother so that is a blessing in itself. Happy 2021 All
