Hello,
I’m Amanda
I am a wife and a mother of four- three here on earth and one waiting for me in Heaven. I am a stay-at-home mom who loves the Lord and is addicted to coffee. I am just an ordinary woman navigating my way through grief.
After the traumatic loss of our baby, Sam in January 2022 and the sudden loss of my dad in January 2025 I have found healing through writing. The ultimate goal for this page is to use it as a platform to grieve out loud- not for sympathy or attention- but to give God the glory because He is still good. Through all of it.
My hope is by being open with my struggles, my trauma, and my grief it will allow those who may be facing similar situations feel a little less alone and know that I am a safe space.
We don’t compare trauma. We don’t compare grief.
