Hi all,

As we continue into a new year, I wanted to share something I’m really excited about.

In 2026, Parenting Through Loss will be moving into a more structured, consistent monthly rhythm. After over a year of holding this space, it feels important to give families something they can count on, something they can plan for and look forward to.

Our first meeting of the year will be Saturday, February 21st, and from there we’ll meet once a month on the third Saturday, each with a clear monthly theme.

We’ll continue offering in-person meetings, and we’ll also be expanding to include a virtual option so more parents can access support, wherever they are.

A full 2026 calendar with monthly themes will be shared soon. My hope is that this structure helps build consistency, connection, and community - not just a place to come once, but a place to return to.

Thank you for being here and for helping this space grow. 🤍

Merry Christmas from our family to yours🎄

Today looks different for so many of us, and that’s okay. Whether you’re holding joy, grief, love, memories, or all of it at once — you’re not doing it wrong.

Thinking especially of parents navigating this season after loss. May today meet you gently, wherever you are.

Hold space for yourself 🤍

Thank you to everyone who chose to show up on Christmas Eve. I don’t take that lightly at all. 🤍
Thank you for being open, vulnerable, and willing to share space with me and with each other.

We laughed, we shed a few tears, and we made some really meaningful connections… that’s exactly what I hoped this space could be. I’m grateful for every single person who joined, whether you spoke or just listened.

As Christmas approaches, please remember to hold space for yourself. However you feel is valid. You’re allowed to pause, breathe, and take care of your heart.

If anyone needs anything, has questions, or just wants to reach out, you can always contact me by email.

Wishing each of you a gentle, peaceful Christmas. 💚

The holidays can be complicated.
Joy and grief often sit side by side—and that can feel confusing, heavy, or lonely.

This Wednesday evening, I’m hosting a Holiday Grief Support Zoom space through Parenting Through Loss. While this space was created with parents navigating loss in mind, it is open to anyone who is grieving or feeling the weight of this season.

We’ll gently talk about:
• the stages of grief (in real-life terms)
• how grief can show up during the holidays
• simple ways to care for yourself during emotionally heavy seasons

This is not therapy and there’s no pressure to share. You can come just to listen, breathe, and be in community with others who get it.

The holidays can feel so different when you’re parenting through loss.

You may be smiling for your child while your heart quietly breaks.
You may be carrying grief, responsibility, and expectations all at once.
You may be doing this without the person who was supposed to help you.

And if that’s you, you’re not weak. You’re grieving and still showing up.

This season can bring up:
• heavy emotions after the kids go to bed
• pressure to keep things “normal” when nothing feels normal
• loneliness in decisions that used to be shared
• the ache of missing a co-parent while still parenting every day

Whether you’re a single parent, a single mom, a single dad, or a guardian raising children after loss, you are not alone in this.

I’m holding space for parents navigating grief during the holidays.

🕯 Parenting Through Loss: Holiday Grief Support
📅 Christmas Eve
⏰ 7:00 PM
💻 Free Zoom • Come as you are

This will be a gentle, supportive conversation focused on:
• the stages of grief
• self-care tips to help you take care of yourself

No pressure to speak. No fixing. Just space.

If this resonates, you’re welcome here 🤍

Hi friends 🤍

I hate having to do this, but due to being sick, I need to cancel tomorrow’s Parenting Through Loss meeting.

This group means a lot to me, and I never cancel lightly. Right now, the best way I can show up for this space is by taking care of myself so I can continue to hold it well moving forward.

As we head into the new year, I’m also taking this time to intentionally plan what’s next for the group and how we move into 2026 together… with care, purpose, and space for where each of us truly is.

Thank you for your understanding and grace. I’ll share details about our next meeting soon, and I can’t wait to be back together. 💚

🎄✨ Parenting Through Loss December Meeting! ✨🎄

Saturday, December 13 • 10 AM • Southwest Center

Topic: Grief & the Holidays — Parenting Through the Merry + the Messy

The holidays can bring a little bit of everything — joy, memories, laughter, and those “whew… give me a second” moments. And when you’re parenting through loss, the season just hits a little different.

This month, we’re talking about how to create moments that feel good for you and your kids… without the pressure of making everything perfect.

Think of it as:
more grace, more breathing room, and more reminders that you’re doing better than you think.

Come sip, chat, laugh a little, share a little — and leave with a lighter heart.

All parents who’ve lost a spouse/co-parent are welcome.
Come as you are — festive, fragile, or somewhere in between. 💚✨

✨ Tomorrow is the day! ✨

Our Grief & The Holidays gathering is almost here, and I’m really looking forward to spending this time together. The holiday season can bring a lot — joy, memories, heaviness, and everything in between — and tomorrow we get to hold space for all of it, together. 💛

Whether this is your first holiday season after loss or you’ve walked through many, you’re welcome.
Come as you are — festive, fragile, or somewhere in between.

⏰ 10:00 AM

If you’ve been thinking about coming, this is your gentle nudge. You won’t have to walk this season alone. 🌿✨

🎄 Grief & the Holidays 🎄

The holidays can be a mix of emotions — joy, nostalgia, love, and sometimes, a quiet ache for those who aren’t here. ❤️

This November and December, our Parenting Through Loss meetings will focus on “Grief & the Holidays” — finding ways to honor what was, embrace what is, and make space for whatever this season brings.

Whether this is your first holiday after loss or you’ve walked through many, this space is for you. Some of us are holding on to old traditions, some are creating new ones, and some are just trying to make it through — and all of that is okay. 🍂✨

🗓 Saturday, November 15th & December 13th
⏰ 10:00 AM
📍 Southwest Center – Texarkana

Come as you are — festive, fragile, or somewhere in between. 💛
