waves of grief.

waves of grief.

The last day I saw our son, Jared, in person was September 6th 2019, Friday of Labor Day weekend. He came home with some of his college friends for a weekend of hiking and fun and getting some things from home he needed for his sophomore year. After hanging at our house for a bit, […]

men who heal.

men who heal.

Yep, today’s Father’s Day, another one of those weird days for so many. This week I have been thinking a little bit about the Southern Baptist move this week to disallow churches who affirm women pastors and just how dumb it all is, how many people across so many realities are continually harmed by male-dominated […]

mother’s day making it.

mother’s day making it.

Oh, Mother’s Day. The holiday that stirs up so much trouble for so many. I’ve got multiple posts on my blog related to Mother’s Day (see the search bar) that I wrote long before Jared died because I had so many friends suffering through every second week of May. For me, since my first Mother’s […]

how to survive losing a child

how to survive losing a child

October is here, the leaves are beautiful, and there’s a big aching pit in my stomach. On October 28th, it’ll be 3 years since Jared died. 3 years? It feels impossible, yet here we are, and I know we are far from alone. In August I went to a retreat with 8 other moms from my […]

roe v. wade: the great backslide will not take us in it

roe v. wade: the great backslide will not take us in it

A few nights ago Jose and I were overseas visiting our daughter, an army dentist. We had a long conversation about misogyny, patriarchy, power, and the realities women face just for being…women.  No matter our ages, my experience continues to be that we all have so many hard stories. For me, the deepest pain is […]

hope prevails and humans are incredible.

hope prevails and humans are incredible.

Oh 2022, I think we’re all a bit scared of you….but this morning as I crawl out of bed to a yard blanketed with desperately needed snow (and a trampoline that flew across it in the wind this week), I have been thinking about hope.  I love hope. But I know hope is dangerous, too. […]

a thing (or 5) about narcissism

a thing (or 5) about narcissism

This week’s episode of Soul + Practice, the new podcast my friend Phyllis Mathis and I finally launched this Fall after a 2 1/2 year delay, is called “Narcissists.” Our weekly conversations are centered on the things we talk about on our Monday walks, and there’s rarely a week that somehow, some way, the topic […]

“You can’t change the world, but you can change someone’s world” – Jared Luke Escobar, 11/11/99 ~ 10/28/19

“You can’t change the world, but you can change someone’s world” – Jared Luke Escobar, 11/11/99 ~ 10/28/19

Two years ago tomorrow our wild and beautiful Jared left this earth. There truly are no words to describe the feeling of the depth of this loss, and as we brace for tomorrow I have spent today in the grief tsunami that’s stirred by anniversaries. Part of my day has been finally reading a bunch […]

we suck at interdependence.

we suck at interdependence.

I have been thinking a lot about the state of the United States of America right now. Of the reality of Delta variant raging through our country, with 1,000+ deaths a day this past week—even when a solution is available. Of news of the horrible events unfolding in Afghanistan and the incredible collateral damage to […]
