This is the fifth and final part of this 5-part series.
Our struggle is real.
Riddled with abuse, abandonment, addiction, depression, selfishness, self-righteousness, self-loathing, body issues…so many things.
Our love is also real.
Showing up, protecting, defending, doing the best we can to love each other through the highs and the lows.
Expectations are too high.
Disappointments are too many.
But…there are moments of light, of love, and of joy.
This is family.
Grit, Gratitude, and Grace 
I’m so proud to call you a friend and happy for you in what you’ve chosen to share here. With love, Leighton
