I am immensely lucky to be married to a man who held our family together with grace and courage at the same time it felt like we were losing everything. We only got to be parents in our physical universe for a mere 4.5 hours, but oh how privileged I am to have witnessed my husband become a father. Zach is surely the best dad Owen could have ever wished for, and I couldn’t ask for a better partner to hold tight to, full of love and strength.
Happy (belated) Father’s Day to my most wonderful love.

So very true Elizabeth. He is one in a million. So proud to call him family. Love you both.
Dear Liz, I tried to comment several times before now, but it felt like my fingertips might leak tears all over the keyboard. This grieving time continues to be “the happiest kind of sad,” and much of the happy comes from the beautiful way that you express your self and your love. I got to witness some of what you’ve described about Zach, and I continue to be in awe…and I don’t think it’s just because I’m his mom. Thank you for being so aware of the gifts that you have…you draw me into that awareness and this is a deep blessing…YOU are a deep blessing. Much love from me to you!
