Grief, Time, and Speaking Up

Dear Henry,

Today has been a whirlwind of emotions as I think of your late Great Grammy. I’ve tried writing this post about a dozen times today and each time it was tougher and tougher to do.

Each night and apart of my routine, I talk to you about a theme or person, a historical moment in time, sometimes read a book. Knowing that this subject matter doesn’t hold with you now, I do it to get ready to have these conversations with you when you are older and it’s a way to help get you familiarized with my voice.
