Day 11 of 365 - Doing it anyway.
Showing up through grief.
Honoring a soul that mattered.
And standing beside my child through her first real lost.

RIP Lady Jade 🤍

Today wasn’t just about losing a horse. Today was the moment I watched my child experience her first real loss. When both of her grandmothers passed, it didn’t register for her she didn’t know them. There was no bond, no memories, no connection she could feel in her body or heart. But Lady Jade… Lady Jade was different. She was present. She was consistent. She was love she could touch, trust, and grow with. For three years, that horse was more family to us than blood ever was. She kept my daughter safe. She carried her through lessons, confidence, calm, and growth. I never once worried when my baby was on her back and that peace is priceless. Watching my child grieve today broke me in a way I wasn’t prepared for. This was her first real goodbye. Her first real heartbreak. And as a mother, there’s nothing harder than knowing you can’t fix it you can only hold them through it. I cried harder today than I cried when my mom passed, and I’m not ashamed to say that. Love is love. Bond is bond. And loss hurts where love lived. Showing up through grief. Honoring a soul that mattered. And standing beside my child through her first real loss. Rest easy, Lady Jade. You were family. Always will be. 🤍🐎
