Grief Camp

P went to a grief camp for kids yesterday by the Eluna Network. What a gift it was. He spent a day learning how to process his feelings and remembering his dad. I spent the first day alone since before the pandemic (and maybe since my birthday in 2018?).

Next month the center that we did the camp through is hosting everyone for a professional baseball game in our city. I'm looking forward to connecting with some of the other moms and families.

A boy was there who lost his daddy in December 2020 too and he's also an only child. His mom and I exchanged numbers - I hope she texts me back.

I need to find "my people". I'm thinking about looking for a grief group for myself.

In all of my circles, I am the weird one. The only young widow. But there are more of us out there. I need my own grief camp!
