This is my first mobile post. I guess we'll see how it goes. We are in route to Temecula, my stomach in knots. I'm so thankful for the company of Kevin's parents and our bloom, of course. We are making the trek from Phoenix. The miles in between are enough I hope, to let go of the anticipation.
I don't know what it feels like to go home, to where my mom once lived. Walking through the front door feels like the hardest step. To not be greeted by her hello, embrace or incessant giggles when she sees Chloe's face.
I told Kevin last night that I feel too young to be doing this. Going home to sort through my mom's belongings. Even though I'm thirty years old, I don't feel ready for this journey. I suppose you never are.
For now I'll enjoy the backseat view of the of the dry, brittle desert and clear blue sky.
If you are reading this, can you say a little prayer for me?

Praying for you my dear, hopefully with the pain comes some joy as you remember the beauty that your mom brought to the world.
Thinking of you and sending up prayers. You are loved...
sending our prayers and love:). If you have a free moment we'd love to meet for coffee or something. Much love. xo
Lisa, Brian and I are thinking of you and sending love and prayers your way. Katie couldn't have said it better. Hopefully the trip will invoke some of your warm memories of your mom. xo.
You are in my thoughts and prayers. Hope it goes as well as it can. And you are too young, that is why it is probably is extra hard. Keep going, you can do it.
I know what you mean about being too young to lose a parent. All that sorting, going through your parent's belongings, is really tough, but it's kind of nice to revisit, or discover, special times and memories in their life. Good luck - we're thinking of you :)
My heart hurts for you. Thinking of you always. =)
I've been thinking of you, sweetie. You're in my prayers always! Revisit, rediscover, and relive her memories, they'll always be with you! love, Krystal
I say a lot of little prayers for you my friend:) You are so special and I love you. I have a surprise for you...I'm coming to AZ for the weekend:) My sweet gpa passed away and we are having his funeral on Sat in Tucson. Please tell me you'll be around, I would love to see you. I'll call you tomorrow so we can chat about it.
You're brave my dear friend and you are surrounded by so much love and support :)
