INTRODUCTION

I remembered as a teenager being fulfilled after reading a good book. I would sit on the couch, the floor, at the dining room table, use the restroom or enjoy a car ride while reading a book. Often times if I wasn’t reading, I was writing. In high school, I had a journal that my best friend and I, at that time, would exchange and just write. Write about how we felt, write about our love life and write about just being a typical teenager in high school. In 2016, I experienced heartache that from time to time was difficult to talk about. I found myself going back to my old ways, my roots and writing. Shortly afterwards, I found myself wanting to tell others about my story and about my experiences. I started off with a non-profit organization: C.H.L.O.E. – Creating Heavenly Life on Earth. I then chose to begin blogging about random life experiences. Although both are helpful, it still wasn’t enough.

I wanted to reach more people and explain to those willing about our experience or rather my experience. Let me explain…On February 28, 2016, my husband Brian and I suffered the loss of a child.
