This is a different thankful Thursday. I’m reaching a little harder for ways to be thankful.
Lately, the media has exploded with heartbreaking stories of lives lost of addiction and mental health struggles. Some have been celebrities and some have become known because of their tragedies. We’ve read the social media posts, watched the videos and even live court trials, listening intently as their stories unfolded as if they were somehow ours.

But what we often don’t see are the people behind the scenes- the families and friends left behind when the cameras go away and everyone else moves on to the next story. They will live with these losses long after the headlines disappear. Judgement will be passed before the truth- truth we may never fully know or understand.

I am not embarrassed or ashamed to say that I have walked through addiction and mental health struggles with the people I love. It does not discriminate. It is real. It is hard. And it is a fight that can take a life or change one forever. And lately, it feels like far too many lives have been taken.

Something has to change. We have to take a harder look at the places we trust to help people get well, at the medications being prescribed by professionals, and at the dealers who continue to profit from selling deadly drugs. We cannot keep loosing people and families to these battles and simply move on to the next heartbreaking story- and they are coming!

So to the families who will never be on the news, who have battled or are suffering with addiction or mental health struggles behind close doors, I am sorry. I see you. I feel your pain. And you are not alone. Your pain is every bit as real, even when no one else sees it.
And maybe there is something to be thankful for in the privacy of our hardest moments. That the last moment of someone we love wasn’t recorded, replayed and watched by millions of strangers.

And for all the children who seemingly left this world alone-mine as well- I choose to believe they weren’t alone at all. I believe angels met them there, guided them home and there was finally peace.
I am thankful🤍

September 6.
The day you were born.
The day the world became better because you were in it.

Dad and I lit three candles here in Italy. One for each of our boys. Three sons. Three candles. Because no matter how many birthdays pass, no matter how much life changes, that will never change.

I would give anything to be lighting candles on a cake for you today. Instead, I lit yours here and said the same words my heart will say on this day for the rest of my life.
Happy Birthday, Sage.

You are loved beyond words.
You are missed in ways I could never explain. And more than anything, I just wish you were here.
🤍 your momma.

There was a time I would have thought the view was the best part of this picture. But life has changed the way I see things.

Somehow, the missing has made me even more aware of all that is still here.
I am thankful

Thursday August 27, 2026

Here we go!
Headed for a once-in-a-lifetime trip. At this moment I feel so much happiness and excitement for what’s ahead. But my heart also knows what this photo doesn’t show-and his name is Sage.

I know there will be moments on this trip when we will laugh until we cry, we will eat too much, and see the most beautiful things. And, I’ll wonder what he would have ordered, what he would have thought was funny-although, let’s be honest, he would be the one making us laugh-and how much I wish I could see his big, beautiful brown eyes taking it all in.

I know I’ll soak up every bit of this trip with the people I love the most, while still wishing Sage were here with us. I’ve learned that missing Sage and loving this life can exist in the very same moment. There is room in my heart for both.
And while my eyes will always look for the one who is missing, somewhere along the way I know we will find him.
I am thankful 🤍

In 2012 my old friend Eric Close came to stay with me while he shot the first season of the tv show “Nashville” that raised the town’s profile so much nationally. Through Eric I became friends with a few other cast members but never had anything to do with the show or the music.

About 5 years later I met Hayden Panettiere through a completely different circle. A group of fellow strugglers who sometimes only understand each other. A group that never treats any loss of life as collateral damage. A group whose response to tragedies like this is “but for the grace of God, there go I.”

I didn’t know her well or for very long. But what experience has taught me the hard way is, what sometimes looks like a someone in a tailspin is just a kind, hurting soul looking for some relief. It breaks my heart when stories end like this, but something tells me this is just the beginning. I can see God now saying “I’ll take it from here.” I have seen firsthand what God can do with a tragedy and my prayer today is that Hayden has the relief she seemed to always be searching for.

There are certain times of the year when grief seems to find me a little easier. Back to school is one of them!

I look at this picture of Sage’s 1st day of his senior year of high school and would give anything for one more school morning. One more rushed goodbye. One more time hearing him complain about having to wear a tie, with that eye roll I can still picture. One more time watching my boy walk out the door with a whole day ahead of him.

Grief has a way of making the ordinary things you once barely noticed become the things you’d give anything to have again.

I miss the rushing around, the lunches to pack, the reminders I probably had to give more than once. I miss all the little things that were simply part of being his mom. What felt so ordinary then means so much to me now.
I am thankful🤍

Before the loss of Sage, I admired sunsets because they were beautiful. Now, I treasure them because they remind me that light has a way of returning, even after the darkest storms. They remind me, too that while grief may change my direction, God is always present and continues to meet me wherever I am.
I am thankful 🤍

So many waves in life. Some of them tiny knee bucklers and some of them monsoons that scoff at what little strength we have to fight them. And that’s where the magic happens. When the wave is so strong we can’t fight it, we surrender to it and just go where it takes us. And if there is any fighting to be done we leave that to someone stronger than us, someone stronger than the wave. The one who made the wave. He’s always there willing to help when we let go and for that I am thankful. 🤍

Beautiful reminders we couldn’t ignore. A sign. Endless fields of Sage. A moment we both felt no matter where we go, our boy is always with us. I am Thankful🤍

For this unexpected family of geese that visits me every day.

A sweet and simple gift that makes me giggle when they greet me and smile long after they’ve waddled away.

I am thankful 🤍🪿
