Happiest birthday to this absolute dreamboat @victoriacwalsh 😍🎂
Your warmth, understanding, infectious chipmunk giggle and pure gooberdome make loving you one of the easiest things. I’m so grateful for all the light you brought back into my world and the little life we’re building together

One year without Regi.
What a rollercoaster it’s been. So grateful for everyone who’s supported me and checked in on me. While the sharp pains of grief have softened a little, the sadness still sneaks up on me. Often, it comes when I’m alone with my thoughts, but there are also so many times when it hits me while I’m surrounded by others who love her so dearly too, the family I’m so grateful she gave me. In those shared moments and with those shared tears, I’ve come to see there’s healing in remembering her together, and I’m thankful for that.
Over the course of the year, I’ve noticed so many little ways she’s changed who I am and how I live. I carry her love and her lessons with me, trying to find joy in as many of the little life things as possible, and applying her “fuck it” attitude whenever I can. But most of all, I’ve learned to love and recognize love more deeply than ever before and that love has helped me move through life, get through it all, and look forward to what’s ahead… which may all sound cliche, I know.
A year ago, someone who had suffered a very similar loss told me that one day I’d be able to think about Regi, and my life with her, with gratitude and warmth instead of the suffocating sadness I felt at the time. I tried calling BS on all of that, thinking it was impossible! Welp, here we are and I’m starting to think that is possible afterall.
I miss Regi so much and will always find ways to celebrate her and our love.
Recent trip back to Asia! 🤤🥢 Ate all the things, spent time with friends/family in Taipei, and celebrated THE boss bb @tokimonsta in Phuket. Kind of a bittersweet trip… Regi’s absence echoed through the spaces but I’m lucky to have had this special time with so many amazing humans!
