I know we all go through seasons. As an individual, couple, family, and even as a culture we go up and down through seasons. Some are hard! Some are easier and seem like a breeze.
Parenting and relationships aren't easy. We had one really hard season with Gavin in the hospital as a baby in 2015. Another hard season is right now with some of our kids' emotions, anxiety, and fears.
I do not have very many good answers or formulas or fixes. But I do know I am so grateful to have you by my side during this difficult season.
As today is Gavin's 10th birthday we celebrate having him in our lives. We love him so much. We are so grateful for Gavin - his health, humor and love. We love Noah so much and how Noah's playfulness, strength and character have been helping us all. At the same time, the kids are hard to help - to mold, shape and grow into young men. It's so hard to help the anxiety, and then the outbursts!
I am grateful you are such a loving and strong mother, and such a beautiful caring wife. We are lucky to be together through ALL the seasons in life.
