You've sent out the dove and it has returned with an olive branch: love is here. 'Your people' (I know, cringe, but that's what they feel like) show up for you in crayons and soups and voice notes, and they get you through. They heal you. Love heals you. open.substack.com/pub/gemmar…

A bus driver stopping at a 'non-stop' to get you & your kids to your destination quicker: I'm at the end of frazzled where this tipped me over the edge 😅
Simple acts of kindness deeply move us.
Let's not lose sight of it this season - worth more than anything under the tree.
