🌈 Sometimes, life feels like an endless storm—heavy, gray, uncertain. But then, without warning, the light breaks through… and there it is… the reminder that beauty still exists and hope still rises.

We are all the luckiest to have him in our lives, this man who went around the world four times to bring his babies home, who lives them endlessly. Happy Father’s Day!

Thank you so much Auntie (@lacroixnotthewater), for bringing our girl so much joy! Paisley is a HUGE Taylor Swift fan, and your sweet gifts made her feel so seen, so loved, and so special. Sometimes it’s the simple, thoughtful things that lift spirits the most—and this one truly made her entire week.

Thank you, Aunt Chrissy, for knowing her heart so well. We’re so grateful for the love you always show. 🫶✨

We made the decision to withdraw Paisley from school back in April.
It wasn’t easy—but it was necessary.

The academic environment had become too hard, too stressful and too much work for a little body always in pain and always stressed out. What she needed was rest, and less stress. And me.

Our family has always focused on quality over quantity. Will she grow up to be a rocket scientist? Our hope right now is that she grows up at all. That she makes it to her next birthday. That she feels safe. That she finds comfort and joy in her days.

So we chose peace over pressure. Right now, what matters most is that Paisley is surrounded by care, softness, and the things that make her feel like her again, and we will reevaluate over the Summer for next school year.

Thank you for always keeping our girl in your thoughts and prayers!
