Wait… Poppy is one? How did that happen already??
Ronan. I don’t live in a normal world anymore. I live in a world that I often feel very alone in, but I tend to do alright in this world. This world without you is so hard for me to live in, but I have done my best to make it bearable by…

A Happy Birthday to your most amazing brothers.
Ronan. Our little, Rachel went back to NYC this morning and I hated to see her go. We had the best time with her here and she is another one of those big reasons that I am so thankful for this blog. Without it, I may have never known this amazing soul who I’m sure…

A death day and an almost birthday
Ronan. We made it through your death day the best we could. I didn’t sleep much the night before and I even had my alarm set to go off during the time that you passed away, just so I could be awake. I didn’t need the alarm because your Poppy sister woke me up almost…

All I want in life is a cure for childhood cancer and to be glitter bombed.
Ronan. Hello May and hello constant stream of tears. Also, hello my little shadow, aka, Quinn who seems to be busting me whenever I am a bloody mess. It’s happened twice this week. Both times he caught me crying, in Poppy’s room. “What’s wrong mom? Why are you sad?” I wiped my…

“This is how dreams die.” -Woody Thompson
I’m not going to go into why I titled this post this way tonight because not everything can be shared. Let’s just say Woody came home and said this to me tonight for a very good reason. All I am allowed to say is screw anybody that sets out to get rich…

2 years ago today, I went to Hell
Ronan. 2 years ago today, April 23rd, I went to Hell. I’ve been to Hell a few times in my life, and it’s not the place that people think you go after you die and you have lived a life of sin. Hell, to me, is right here on earth. Hell, to…

That Poppy girl has saved my life
Ronan. I forget to write about 23 months without you. I was in the hospital with your Poppy sister. It was the day after I had her. I told your Mr. Sparkly Eyes how I thought that you and your sister had planned that I went into labor on the 8th,…

That beautiful day your sister was born
Ronan. I know I’m supposed to sleep when your Poppy sister sleeps, but even early in these morning hours, I just can’t seem to do so. It doesn’t matter the lack of sleep I’m getting due to breastfeeding her, holding her, or obsessively watching her sleep because I’m scared she’s just going to up and…

Baseball, Brisket and Marriage Equality for all!
Ronan. I think time is standing still. At least that’s how it feels to me. Maybe it’s because I’m having to take things easy now that your Poppy sister is almost here. Maybe it’s grief. Or a combination of both. I remember things feeling this way right after you passed away for the first 6…

That hair, that hair, that hair…
Phoebe is on the left in this picture. Is her hair to die for or what? Big thank you to my little Rachel for making her day yesterday. Love you, Rach. You are the sweetest soul. Thank you all who have left such sweet comments on Phoebe’s page. Truly made my day.…
