From the birth of my fourth child until today. This gives a glimpse into my life that is filled with joy, sadness, pure happiness, and devastating grief... in other words... it is real.

21 July 2015 (213 days after The Day)
So every day there seems to be a single step toward normalcy. Today Emma worked to purge Ammon's room of toys for me. Then she relocated Claire's bed there. This was a huge step for me. I have my bedroom back. I am able to start cleaning it up. Lots of items on Jan's dresser remain as she left them. I have not had the energy to go through them. I also still have gobs of cards I received that I still need to go through. Even though there is a lot to do... I feel today there was a massive step toward healing. All of my healing is one step at a time. Much like climbing stairs or a ladder. You just don't realize how far you have come until you look back. Looking back is painful. I am acknowledging I have come a long way... I want to continue to heal.
