this is really hard.

and maybe you shouldn't read it if yer feeling fragile. or extra tired. or if yer baby is sick with a fever and yer more vulnerable than usual.
cuz this is really hard.
but i need some vibes. and more than me, this family needs some vibes. so i write.
even though it's really hard.
a toddler was killed in a house fire today in the town just outside of ours. the call came in this morning and, so selfishly, i thank the universe that i was not working, did not have to answer the line.
and all i'm going to say, because this is not my tragedy, is please send yer thoughts this way. to this family who lost their treasure, and to each other, every one of us here. because we are each embarking on this journey that is heartbreak and joy and the simple terror of not knowing.
our hearts are breaking here.
