This is a bittersweet photo.
…
Bitter because we are missing one of Team Turner.
…
Sweet because we made it through the 2018/2019 school year only by God’s grace.

Those early days in early September ‘18 after Justin died were awful. A seasoned educator told me she had walked with other students through the loss of a parent and that I just needed to expect a horrible school year. And it was horrible at first, but God brought the right people into our lives (counselors, tutors, therapists, mentor friends) and our family & close friends surrounded us with help and love, and week by week we saw improvement. And today I’m celebrating – not claiming we don’t still have difficult moments and days; and we are still deeply grieving (some days the emotions are more raw than others)… but we made it this far, and that’s worth celebrating.
