Facing Past Together
I took a deep breath and nodded. “Alright, let’s do it.” The weight of the moment hit me like a wave—not just because we might see Charlotte again, but because this was about more than a reunion. It was about teaching the kids how to face life’s complexities with courage and grace. Eva reached over and squeezed Jonas’s hand, while James offered a quiet, hopeful smile. In that moment, I understood the importance of guiding them through this emotional, yet potentially healing journey. Whatever lay ahead, we were in it together—ready to face it all.

Sending The Invitation
We sat down to write the invitation, each word chosen with care and intention. “To Charlotte,” Eva read aloud, “we’d love for you to join us.” It felt like more than an invitation—it was a step toward healing, a gentle push toward closure. “Are you sure?” Jonas asked, his voice unsure. I nodded, steady. “It’s time,” I said. With a shared breath, we clicked send and watched it disappear into the unknown. It was a quiet but powerful act, a signal of change, and a way to show the kids that facing the past can help shape a better, more honest future.
