I've been meaning to write a progress report about James for, gosh, probably months now. 😅 There are topics I want to respond to. Other people's PR entries I want to catch up on. And DMs I still need to respond to!

 

The mental focus and energy is not always there, and when it is, it's very often the case that neither Phil nor I have much control over where it is directed. Such is the way with a (probable) ADHD brain.

 

I do want to mention that James' first birthday is already fast arriving!!!!! 😁💚❤️ He will turn 1 year old on April 7, which is the Sunday after next, which I recently realized is night 2 of WrestleMania, so that's a really neat coincidence this year! 😁 We'll be able to have a birthday/WrestleMania party together! 😁 It's quite shocking to me that he is already a year old! I know this is cliche to say, but it really does feel like he was just born yesterday. 🥰👶

 

 Well you've definitely been missed. I'm glad to hear you're all doing well. I hope the birthday night is super festive.

Hi, I have some very sad news to share:

 

This morning Phil's father passed away. He has had cancer for a while and today it finally took him.

 

That is largely behind why I've not been posting as much recently; Phil has been looking after his father and I've been looking after Phil. We'll probably be on the forum very little over the coming days, though I still intend to keep checking my DMs. (And responses to this post) I'm really not sure what else to say about this. Phil knows he can count on me 100% to be there for him. I feel gratitude that Phil was able to spend 38 years of life in this world with his father. I am grateful that he went calmly and is with God now. I am grateful for the mysteries of life and death, of love, joy, and sadness. I am grateful for all of God's blessings.

 

I love all of you. 💚

You already know my system's no good at responding to emotional things, but at least know I thought about how to a fair bit and posting this is all I came up with

Thank you Lumi, this unironically means a lot to us. 😊

Aww Simmie and Phil, our hearts go out to you both!

[ringgggg]

Sorry you had to go through that. Hope you’re doing well over there, you two

[TurboSimmie]

Thank you so much @Autumn Ren @ringgggg 💚💚💚

 

We've been doing well, a lot going on of course, and on top of everything else Phil somehow managed to throw his back out!!! Poor guy!!! So we've been resting up just trying to get that to heel up. Spirits are strong. 😊
