Hi! I’m Elizabeth and thank you for visiting. I write about my kids, my home, my grief, and creating a Purposeful Home. Welcome to Finding My Purpose!

I started writing this a year ago at the start of the Pandemic, when we didn’t know what we were dealing with or what was going to happen. We were stuck at home glued to the news attempting to rationally absorb everything they were sharing. In the past, I’ve used writing as an outlet for release… and this was no different. I wrote this early on then forgotten about it. I’m sharing it now, over a year later.
No mother should ever have to bury her child. But it happens all the time. And recently it was a family we know, making my heart heavier and taking me back just a bit to the familiar feelings of four years ago.
I’ve been there. We lost my three-year-old son in 2016.
Have your young children lost someone close to them and you weren’t sure how to talk about it? Books can help introduce tough topics, and here are a few that really helped my family as we adjusted to life without my son.
This was the simple question from my young son as I was helping him in the shower one night… simply trying to get him to rinse the shampoo out of his hair, for what felt like the millionth time.
Dear daughter. I love you more than you know.
These days, when I hear ‘you don’t like me,’ it quickly breaks my heart into a thousand pieces.
Why do you say that? And what have I ever done to make you feel that I don’t like you?
When you are sick, I want to make you well.
