      ⁠@@alittleblessedlifeYes we are crying and hugging you Stephanie! 🥹 Timmy was such a sweetheart! I loved to hear him sing the old spiritual songs. Many of them my Mom and I used to sing in church when I was growing up! Never doubt that you could have done more for him because from what I saw you went above and beyond in taking care of him! 🙏🏽 You are an amazing young lady! Be Encouraged and Trust God to get through it all!!🫶🏽🤗😇

      Oh honey, I am so sorry. I lost my husband in February and I know how you feel. My daughter and I cleaned and donated a lot of stuff and my reason for cleaning out so much was because of the pain of seeing his things. Some special items I kept, but a lot was cleaned out. Grieving, I think, is a process and it is very slow moving. But, certain songs, tv shows or things on the internet I will not watch because I’m not ready to handle them yet. I am praying for you ti continue to move forward with your life.

    Aw, Stephanie! My heart goes out to you so much. I cried along with you. It was so precious to see the footage of you and Timmy in 2022, so happy together. I know you miss him more than words. After my mom died, I kept her recliner for years. I would sit in it and that was one of my favorite places to pray. Mom did so much praying in that chair. I still have her purse and the stuff she had in it when she died in 2012. My Daddy died in 2000, and I still have his wallet and his banjo is one of my most cherished possessions. Thank God for the dear memories we have of our departed loved ones, and I am so thankful we don't sorrow as those who have no hope. We will see them again, my friend. One day, this life and all these tears will be left behind, and we will be gathered with them around God's throne. Until then, may He comfort your hurting heart.

    Three things I want to tell you....First, I love you and I'm praying for you daily....second, I love every video you make (including get ready with me vids).....three, it does my heart good that you are sharing your feelings because that is very important for those who grieve to know they are not alone, but most importantly it helps you with your grief. No one can tell you how to do it, we all just do it when forced to. Even tho it's sooooo hard (I know, I lost my son), to get it out will help you. I think this channel is such a good idea, it's like emotional therapy. I wish I could make a channel for Mother's who have lost adult children but I honestly don't think I could speak thru it. I get very overwhelmed. You are doing very well, with your grief, even when you don't think so. We do the best we can and when we can't do anything , we sit down and have a meltdown. I so appreciate you thinking of others like you do. What a loving heart you have. In your time and in your way, this will not have been for nothing. God Bless you and keep you 💜

You grieve at your own pace and you don't have a time limit. ❤ the video and this new channel. Prayers to you. Sincerely, Cathy.

    Hello honey. I'm so glad you started your second channel. Seeing you sitting on the couch and it being dark out, I truly understand how you do get real sad at night. I think this channel is going to help you through the grieving process. You don't have to edit anything out. You're able to say exactly how you feel. You can cry, laugh. Share memories. You don't have to keep any feelings to yourself. Scream, yell. Get out your anger and frustration over him leaving so early. We'll all be there for you honey. We may not have met in person but we are friends. I love you and I love Timmy. You're in my prayers and I pray God will ease your heart ache everyday. God Bless.

    Stephanie, Ive messaged you before. I am a widow as well. I was widowed at 45. I am now 60. Ive been through what you are going through, those early stages of grief. Please take good care of yourself. You mentioned your stomach and sinuses were bothering you. Remember you have been through a traumatic and extremely emotional loss. Mind and body are connected and as you are going through extreme emotional pain, and stress, your immune system can be lowered. Also the sense of smell is one of the strongest things that trigger past memories. I remember going into my Jeffs closet and for the first months, i could still smell him from his clothes, particularly his shirts....it made me miss him terribly. I still have his wallet, just as he left it. Im glad you made a second channel. So many of us probably can relate to you, as im sure im not the only widow that has messaged you.
    Everything you are feeling is normal. I promise it gets easier. Im not at all saying you will ever stop grieving Timmy, because you will not. But time has a way of softening the pain. There is hardly ever a day that has gone by since 9-16-08 that i haven't thought of my Jeff. Thats the day he passed away. The day i held his hand as he took his last breath. But you and i WILL be reunited with our husbands again, you know that. For now, i pray you find peace, take all the time you need to take care of yourself. Going to the gym is great. Although, i didnt. I should have. I still should. I enjoy both your channels and think you are awesome! Much love, Bonnie

I can relate to many comments you shared. I will not forget him, it can be so sad when we come across something that brings a memory forward, however the memories become easier to celebrate as time goes on. Take care, you are loved by so many and we will not forget our fond memories of Timmy.❤❤

    Bless your hurting heart, Stephanie. I know how you feel, I lost my sweetheart of 46 1/2 years five years ago in November! There is nothing you can do to rush it and we never know what sight, sound, smell, action will bring a torrent of grief to or hearts that as you well described it. It is like a pain of no other in your gut, like it almost bends you over with the pain!
    Time does help it to hurt less but it will never go away, you and Jesus will find you way to face it and get through it, not even a day at a time but sometimes only a second at a time!! Don’t try to rush through the grief! Your videos are a blessing and also away to help you heal!!❤❤

    I love your videos. Stephanie, I lost my husband 11 years ago after being married for 50 years. I was his caregiver for over 10 years and when he passed, I was lost, I just couldn't figure out what to do with my time. I kept his pajamas on the bed for 6 months after he died. They still were not washed. I just wanted to have something that still had his smell on them. I finally washed and put them away but I just recently cleaned out his closet except for a few things I wanted to keep. Night time was the hardest for me too. It just takes time. One day at a time, one minute at a time. I had people say ," you should be doing better by now " well, until it happens to them, they don't fully understand how they will feel. They aren't being unkind, they just have not had that experience. I'm praying for your peace of mind and comfort.

But we all can go to our Lord for comfort & ❤ as we grow from these items. I've been thru several in my 63 years (death of family - especially a horrible car accident taking my father, health issues,.. ) but God has seen me thru all and there will be joy in the end.

    No you're definitely not alone. I lost my Daddy when I was 11. It was a complete shock and so heartbreaking. I slept on his pillow and when Mama washed his pillow case, she would spray the clean pillow case with the cologne he wore all the time. To this day, whenever I smell Stetson cologne, it brings back so many memories of my sweet Daddy. He's been in Heaven 33 years and sometimes, it still feels like yesterday. It's a different ache and grief from losing a spouse, but the triggers are the same - smells, music, certain places. Praying for you ❤

    Stephanie, I can so identify with your feelings. There were some things I wanted to hold onto and others I couldn’t bear to look at after my husband passed. And the smells….He always liked to smell good too. He always said jokingly, “If you’re not handsome, you need to smell good “. Gentle hugs to you ❤❤❤

    I am a person who is comforted or reminded of something due to scent as well. I can relate to how you feel in so many ways. I still have my dads clothes tree with his jackets on it as well as his slippers and random things. He passed 2 year's ago. I still remember seeing him on the step of his home where i now live with my son,was the last time I saw him before he passed away 2 weeks after from covid. Grief has no end date sadly and its at the moment's i feel parts of him are slipping away i smell his cologne or hug his jacket. Comfort in the little things.❤

    Watching your video tonight. I have been where you're at with your grieving. I have been a widow for 4 years now. Certain things trigger the grief for me. Your fortunate to have the videos of your Timmy.I really looked forward to Timmy singing at the end . I enjoy watching both your channels. God bless you.

    You were a awesome caretaker and wife to Timmy and I’m sure he had no complaints. I love this channel Stephanie and it is helping me to cope with losing my sister. I lost her 30 years ago but sometimes it feels like yesterday and all I do is cry. Listening to Timmy singing reminds me that I will see her again and my tears become tears of joy!🙌❤

    Stephanie, when my husband died, I didn't have an outlet to share my grief except my Facebook page and I hesitated to put how I felt there. I'm so glad you're opening up on your new channel. The hardest part for me was how quiet it was, and not hearing his voice. I would sit in the living room, and I could hear him yelling from the den, hey honey, what's for dinner? I yelled back and said hey honey, if you walk in here, we can discuss it. Lol. I miss him being here to travel with me, but the main thing I miss is the day to day companionship. Tuesday was our date day and we always went to Goodwill, shopping and ate out. I really miss that.
    I had to take him off life support in ICU. That was the hardest thing I've ever done in my life. when I got home and I was all alone, I walked in his closet and looked at all of his clothes. I pounded the wall and asked him., why did you have to leave me? I wasn't ready to be alone.
    Get rid of the chair. It will help you! After my husband died, I decided to sell the house a year later. I think moving away from that house has helped me tremendously. This house is where he had a fall, after a stroke, that would later take his life.
    I can feel your grieving deep in my heart. I am glad your family is close by to give you support. Hugs and much love, Devonne

    Awesome video Stephanie but the ending made me shed a tear when I saw you so upset telling us about Timmy’s chair and his little draw with his things , you leave it there as long as it takes believe me you know when your be ready to do otherwise.
    You look beautiful with your weight loss we all know how hard it is to give up certain foods, snacks etc you can eat what you want in small portions and you still gonna lose weight I believe, enjoy your life and your family.

    Oh, Steph, you are such a beautiful person. Your grief is so beautiful because your life for Timmy was true. Take your time parting with items. There will be a time and you will know it's time to move it out of the house. I'm so sorry you have to go through this 💔 but you are strong and such a beautiful person you will survive. I love watching all your videos. Getting ready or thrifting, even seeing the small towns. I just love the videos with family. Love you, girl, be happy and spread your joy with others and bringsmilesto others.😊❤

I even wore my husband’s cologne for awhile after he passed away. It will be ten years in January that my husband has been gone. You ride those waves of grief honey they will help you cope. One day at a time sweet,Jesus…one day at a time. Grief is a emotional roller coaster! You’ve got this…yes you do by the grace of God. 🙏❤️

    Stephanie, you are in my prayers, I have watched you videos from the start. Thank you so much for making real life videos. I loved hearing Timmy sing at the end of your videos, the songs he sang were the songs I grew up in church hearing, and some I still sing in church today, Timmy’s setting around the thrown singing for Jesus, I pray comfort and peace for you, glad you have CZcams friends like Merina, I love her channel too, God bless you in this new channel.

    I’m glad to have found your channel. My husband passed 2 years ago and so many of the things you share are so familiar to me. The scents, the chair, how the personal items in his drawer.. all the bittersweet reminders you just can’t let go of are just part of the grieving process. I’m so sorry you have to go through this but I know you’ll touch many through sharing your experience. 🙏🏻💐

    This video was perfection. From the realistic grwm to the fun at the farmer's market, promoting local business, I'm sure Tyrel and the other's really appreciate it. The comical little cat chase. And the struggle, along with the clip and song of you and Timmy. You are doing something really special here. Although I'm sure pouring your grief into this creativity maybe draining at times it will surely bless you as you bless others. My heart is right there with you, Stephanie. My hubbies' been gone 4 years. It took slow motion time to slowly weed out his belongings and certain things will never go, wallet, favorite sweater, Nascar t-shirts, a special trophy, those kind of things, they are just too precious to me.

    My father died at age 58, a traumatic, tragic death. He was a very beloved small town family doctor. I still keep a pajama shirt of his in my drawer, even though it was 40 years ago. This doesn’t begin to compare to the loss of your dear Timmy, but I understand your desire to hold on to his belongings, a small part of him, especially his cologne. The Lord is close to the broken hearted, I pray He wold wrap his loving arms around you and give you His peace, and joy. Your channels are helping others so much, and your witness for the Lord may lead people to be born again.
    The song, “Thank You,” by Ray Boltz captures the idea that in Heaven, someone may say thank you, and Timmy for leading them to the Lord!

    Oh I love the boot barn what fun. I am glad you started this channel. I think a greif is not talked about enough. Greif is different for everyone. You are a very special person to share this with us. When Timmy passed and I saw the video., I about hit the floor. I had just found out my husband has stage 4 lung cancer. I was heart broken for you and for my self. And as you gathered your strength and my husband's health has declined I realized that I was starting to greive what is to come. I believe that God has big plans for you young lady. What you are show is real not sugar coated. Its life and life can be very hard at times. God brings us where we need to be for a moment or a season and its a work in progress. Thank you for bringing me along with you💜
