Love has a powerful way of shaping our lives, our healing, and our sense of worth. ❤️

Stephen Chbosky’s words remind us that “We accept the love we think we deserve.” During difficult times—especially after a loss—it’s so important to surround ourselves with people who offer kindness, patience, and genuine care.

If you or someone you love is grieving, please remember: you deserve compassion, support, and a community that lifts you up.

We’re honored to walk beside families with the love and respect they truly deserve. If you need guidance or someone to talk to, we’re here for you. 🕊️

Today we honor Children’s Grief Awareness Day — a reminder that children grieve too, and their feelings deserve understanding, patience, and care.

Here are 3 ways to help a grieving child this season:
1️⃣ Listen without fixing. Let them share memories, ask questions, and express feelings in their own way.
2️⃣ Keep routines steady. Familiar schedules and traditions bring comfort during uncertain times.
3️⃣ Talk openly. Use simple, honest words about loss — it helps them make sense of what they’re feeling.

Every child’s grief journey is unique. With love, patience, and support, healing is possible.
