Seriously??? Why is Christmas SO Hard?

I first shared this a few years ago when I really thought I should have reached a place in my grief journey where holidays weren’t as difficult as they were at first.

But what I realized then and what has been confirmed since is that every year has new and unique situations that make Christmas a fresh challenge each time.

As the eighth Christmas without Dominic rapidly approaches, I am pondering the question:  “Why, oh why, is Christmas so hard?” 

I think I’ve figured out at least a few reasons why.

I am a shepherd, wife and mother of four amazing children, three that walk the earth with me and one who lives with Jesus. This is a record of my grief journey and a look into the life I didn't choose.

  1. I lost my son to a car accident on February 28th 2020. He was 36 years old but the age of a child never changes a mother’s heart. I don’t think it matters how old or how young your child is, a piece of your heart is gone My faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is the only thing that has gotten me through this pain and knowing I will see Caleb in heaven once again. God is good all the time❤️
