Description

Remember coming home after the emergency room…

My kids were young (9, 7, 6 & 5 years old) and still running around, goofing off being clueless. Came home to a messy home…

Sat down the moment I walked in the door.
Recollect myself.
Took myself to my room and called my ladies.
Broke down.

As the news already flooded Facebook with Brike’s passing from my immediate family.
Just sat there and cried while they listened quietly.

Brike’s mom, brother and sister-in-law left soon after.

Just my kids and I.
Alone.
Alone.

Auto pilot, I just went straight to cleaning my house to keep my mind busy…
It was really a blur. I couldn’t remember much but all I remember was I cleaned, cleaned and cleaned until
I could cleaned anymore.

Passed out at 5-6am after a long night of crying and it repeats.
Having to wake up and be a mom still,
It was hard,
But I had no choice.

I still get emotional thinking of everything because it feels like it was just yesterday 💔
