Flashback Friday: Senior Prom

July 15, 2011

I don’t know if this is strictly Blair’s deal but y’all know (I live in Texas now, I get to say y’all) I have to do what she does because of her sheer awesomeness.

So here it is. My first Flashback Friday complete with teenaged awkwardness.

Sam and I had been dating about 7 months. I was pretty crazy about him. The light on my chest? No idea where that came from. But it’s not a disease, promise.

So there you have it. Me. At 17. With my future husband. And yes Law Momma, we did have a devilish look on our faces. For good reason.

Sorry Mom. :/

You are way cute, and Sam’s expression is priceless. And your last line? Perfect. 😉

Just found you and read a few posts. I love your style and honesty.

You two are afreakindorable. Also, you look way to good for that to be that long ago. My prom pic has big hair and a Gunne Sac dress.

{About Me}

I'm Diana, and my blog is about loss, grief, motherhood, trauma, faith, moments of incredible wonder, candid thoughts, and a little snark. You can find more details on our story here.
Sam and I have been married since I was 19. He was 20. He's an OIF, medically retired veteran of the Army and Marines. We have 5 children - Bella was born in 2009 after a rather bumpy pregnancy and her first year was mostly crazy reflux. Preston and Julian, my identical twins, were born at 20 weeks in 2012 and lived only a few hours. Kaden was born full term in 2013 seemingly perfect, and at 4 days old he was found to have cardiomyopathy due to ciHHV-6. He passed away at 3 weeks old. Charlotte was born in 2015, and was a complete surprise to us. Each of them have changed our lives completely.
Currently I'm in school to become a counselor who focuses on trauma and grief.
I love Jesus - even though sometimes I get really angry and upset at the way our life has gone. I hope through my faults, insecurities, snarkiness, selfish nature, and general mess - my love for Christ and His work in my life shines through in my story.
