Today is World Mental Health Day, and at Traces of Trinity, it’s a conversation close to our hearts. 💚

When a child is facing a serious diagnosis or navigating long-term hospitalization, the focus is naturally on medical treatments, vitals, and physical healing. But behind every hospital door are parents running on empty, carrying immense emotional weight, exhaustion, and fear in silence.

Caregiver mental health is important.

Sibling mental health is important.

Navigating grief and uncertainty takes an undeniable toll.

Our Traces of Trinity (TOT) totes and meal support from our partners at Yard House aren't just practical items; they are reminders to every caregiver that they are seen, they are not alone, and their well-being matters too. Taking a five-minute breath outside, stepping away for a warm meal, or having soft comforts during long nights isn't selfish; it’s survival.

To every parent sitting beside a hospital bed today, and to every family walking through grief: give yourself grace. You don’t have to carry it all with a brave face.

💚 If you know a family navigating pediatric hospitalization or loss, take a moment today to check in on them. A simple “Thinking of you, no need to reply” can mean the world.

There is something so profoundly healing about being seen by your community, especially while navigating life after loss.

When walking through grief, milestones, birthdays, and celebrations often feel heavy, draining, and tender. Grief lingers quietly in everyday routines, reminding you of who is missing. But sometimes, comfort shows up in the most ordinary places.

Every Sunday, DJ and I grocery shop together. Over the years, we found “our” cashier. She is an older woman with the kindest smile and the gentle warmth of a grandmother, either the one you miss or the one you never had. No matter the line, we wait for her.
That checkout lane has held so much life: laughter, tears, and life updates.

She has given us flowers on hard weeks, hugs when we needed them most, and treats to celebrate. When she recently walked through the heartbreak of losing her mom, we poured that same love back into her.

This past Sunday, I shopped alone while DJ worked on a project. When I reached her register, she asked about DJ, our weekend, and how big the girls are getting.

As I went to pay, she said, “Hold on a second.”

She returned with a slice of cake in DJ's favorite flavor, with “Happy Birthday DJ” handwritten across the container so I could take it home to surprise him.

When I told her she didn't have to, her eyes welled up. She reminded me how vital it is to cherish moments with people who matter. She told me our weekly visits bring her so much joy and that she loves us. Sharing hugs with tears in our eyes on a quiet Sunday morning, I felt overwhelmingly blessed by Our community.

Check out the sweet cake and DJ’s face, first in surprise, then pure joy once he realized who it was from!

Milestones can carry an ache, but intentional love softens the edges of grief. Take the moments. Share your love. Be the light in someone’s day. 💜

This morning I started out feeling completely fine until I logged in for work and saw the holiday toy catalog sitting on my desk from the mail the day before. It felt like it arrived a bit early this year, and just seeing it instantly brought tears to my eyes.

​Trinity used to carry those holiday catalogs everywhere, eagerly showing absolutely anyone and everyone what she liked and wanted whether it was for Christmas or just because.

​Some days you feel like you truly have a handle on your grief, and then something as simple as a piece of mail catches you off guard. In those moments, you just have to sit with the feelings, let the tears flow, and hopefully find the smile tucked inside the memory.

​Missing my girl extra this morning, I decided to make a cup of my favorite Trin-inspired tea in my favorite Trin-inspired mug to help get through the day. It’s a sweet and spicy blend which couldn't be more fitting. Depending on the day or the moment, Trin could be so sweet and kind, and other times she was wonderfully spicy.

​Cheers to my Trin today. If you find yourself triggered by an unexpected memory, know you are never alone.

​Happy Trin Friday. 💜

We're so grateful for the space provided by Kaiser Permanente Roseville’s Pediatric Grief Support Program this week! Standing alongside families who walk the same difficult road makes the weight of grief a little lighter.

We got to experience deep breathing exercises through live music, we wrote memories about our loved ones, listened to a beautiful live cover of 'everglow' by Coldplay, a poem, a beautiful slideshow, and more.

Letting out grief isn't about being weak; it’s about acknowledging the immense impact our children made. Grieving together helps us navigate the long days and validates that our children's short lives will always hold significant meaning. 💗✨
