Isaiah Joseph,

Today was absolutely draining. I’m not sure if you heard me when I was in my room, but I asked you for any direction you could give me.

We had the Caring Place tonight and I’m so thankful that we are in this session. I’ve been worried about Ellie and how she grieves you, but she seems to be making a lot of progress in this session. Today she said they did interviews with three of the other kids in the session. They asked them about school, what they like to do, about the person they lost, and emotions that come with losing that person. I have no idea what Ellie said during any of this, but the fact that she participated is amazing. I still have to figure out what to do because she’s missing hip hop class every week, but I just feel like this is so important.

I’m hoping tomorrow is better, I can’t handle a lot of days like today in a row. Please, please watch over us and help guide me in this life. I love you more than anything, baby boy. Goodnight and sweet dreams.
