This was such a lovely read!! Thank you for sharing! The photo of your family is stunning! Thank you for sharing your grief journey. God and your dad were definitely smiling down when you were in the bookstore and antique shop. Beautiful story!!

And I understand what you mean about questioning interactions when traveling while Black. “Oh, they must be racist” is my default response 🥴.

Thank you for the compliment on our photo! Oh they must be racist is hilarious but in that "we laugh to keep from crying" sort of way. I'm trying harder to have more faith in people but it's so hard given where we are as a country 😑
