Loveleigh ☔️

I got the love letters my mom & dad sent to each other 🥹

They made a slideshow 😭 It was so sweet I’m so touched ♥️

My sister not gatekeeping her recipes and kitchen secrets from mom’s side of the family is such a big step for her 🥰

Ooooooh gratefully accepted thank you 🥰🥰🥰

Baby Leigh 🥰

Todays the day I’m visiting the family who may be a little more judgy. Wish me luck!

Love that they call me “Leigh” 🥰

About 20 of us on a family trip and we somehow all matched our outfits 😆

Celebrating All Soul’s Day. Up at 3:30 am to get to the cemetery at 5:30 am. Sun’s about to rise. Families are coming in. Candle’s being lit. We’ll be here all day honoring our passed loved ones. Also finally visited my maternal grandparents. Very grateful for today. 🥹❤️🪽

Watching her memorial video with her siblings 🥺

Thank you Birds 🥰 Isn’t she just beautiful (inside & out!) 😍 We’re so lucky ♥️

Happy birthday to the love of my life, my momma 🥹🥰 Celebrating today with her siblings, our relatives, and her childhood friends. Today we honor and remember the most unforgettable woman. ♥️🪽

Was absolutely attacked with love today at the airport 😭 Like all mom’s siblings just hugged us and cried and then told us how beautiful we are 😭🥰

About to board my first leg of the journey and we hear one of mom’s fave songs from a pianist doing covers at the airport. I think that’s a good sign. 🥹

I neverrrr knowww how to choose naaaail polish at the salonnn 😭

I think I found myself a new stylist! 🥰

🤪

Getting a haircut with a new stylist. May the hair gods & goddesses be with me today. 💇🏻‍♀️

Idk why I insist on sleeping at 2 am when my body always wakes up at 7 am — when will I learn?! 😭🫩

Absolutely!! We’ll be visiting her friends, siblings, great nieces and nephews, godchildren, cousins… oof it’s gonna be a big celebration 🥰

Aaaaaaa I wanna waaaaaatch!!!

I just know they’re going to hug and never let go 😭 They’ve known her since she was Grade 1! And they’re in their 70s now 🥹 (totally posted from the wrong acct haha bound to happen lol)

Just got off video call with mom’s friends. Going to meet them for the first time when I’m back at her hometown. They said I look so much like my mother…her smile, her eyes, how beautiful she is(🤪) 🥹 We cried together, saying how much we miss and love her. I can’t wait to see them.🩵

I love I love I looooove 😍😍😍😍

There’s something so healing about walking in the rain, in no rush ☺️☔️ on my way to my local, bustling Mexican bakery to enjoy a little (late!) breakfast by myself 🥹

You know what, let's do the Annual Mister Global National Costume thread tonight after all. Usual rules apply - this is all in fun, this isn't about the contestants looks or making fun of them, it's about the costumes and appreciating them (or, you know, making fun of them...)

“Are you handy around the house?”

“Yup!!” I say, sobbing. 🥹

One cousin has a new baby and another just got engaged. Hopefully that’ll distract from me being the older, unmarried, childless cousin. 🙃 A fun family reunion awaits! (idek if I’m being sincere or sarcastic tbh)

Gave mum’s name for my order so I can hear someone else say it 🥹
