Grief + Loss

With great joy comes great grief, and it’s healthy to show our littles how to process and handle those big, tough emotions. The grief + loss category exists to provide mothers with a place to find resources regarding this topic. Whether it’s the loss of a child, loss of a parent, or other sad situations, use grief + loss to help navigate tough times.

One day you will tell your story of how you conquered what you went through and be an inspiration to that mama struggling with infertility.
I try to live my life with no regrets. Off the top of my head, if there is one thing I regret, one thing I wish I could go back and change, it starts the moment I learned I...
But if you know anyone who has suffered the loss of their mother, or a child, or infertility, be gentle and be compassionate. If they don't want to attend church or Sunday brunch, bring Sunday brunch to them. Remember, some of us can't help the tragedies that have befallen us. We have to cope with deep wounds through no fault of our own, therefore, a hug and an understanding heart is always appreciated.

Teaching Our Kids to Mourn

0
While it's not something particularly pleasant to consider, I firmly believe that we have an obligation as parents to teach our children how to mourn as surely as we teach them to ride a bike.
In a society that values perfection and pulled-togetherness, it can feel very taboo to grieve before a loss because it can seem like we've given up hope or are being pessimistic.
Everyone's journey is different; he or she might want to test new ways to live and want someone to discuss this with. Genuinely listen to thoughts, hopes, and fears. Be a safe place for the person when he or she wants to dream and live well to the very end. 
I continually search for ways to hold on to my memories and honor him, as well as the family and friends I have lost, and I've gathered a few ideas to share with you.
