My big sister and aunts did great work, but nothing can replace Mom. The grief is loud.

But today, my brain just keeps repeating over and over that my mother wasn't there.

Mama's got a new pair of Sandlars

people who want other people to stay in sad little grey boxes forever and never be happy in their bodies or desires are villains and cowards and they may be winning right now but by god they will lose as water smooths stone and roots break it, because that fierce joy is roots and water and life

But, the mother & baby tent has a new significance ♡
