our family has suffered a tragic loss.

we've just returned from matt's home in wyoming, and we're trying our best to put one foot in front of the other and make sense of the world, of life, of love, of forever and of no more.

i hope to be back soon.

i hadn’t seen your blog at the top of my list for so long, i began to wonder if everything is okay. i am so sorry to hear that it is not–i am unexpectedly crying as i type this. i wish i could bring you a hotdish (because that’s what we do in minnesota). my thoughts and prayers are with you and your precious family because strangely, even though i do not know you, i feel as if i do.
that was a lot of words for a time when words are just not enough.

I’m so sorry to hear about your family’s loss. I guess when you read a person’s blog, even though you have never met them and probably never will, you still feel a connection to them, and I’m very sad to hear this news. You have such a sweet family and you will be in my thoughts and prayers.

I believe prayers and good thoughts from strangers are equally blessed and as healing as those from loved ones. Please know you have a lot of love and support from “out here” in blogland. I may not know you, but I’m huggin’ your neck right now, you dear girl.

Been checking your site a lot to see what new stuff was headed our way and just read your blog. Sorry for your loss. I know as a parent myself you have to hold on to your kids in sad times and know their smiles will help you get through it and will carry on the family you have lost.
My thoughts are with you and great stuff in the store.
