POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Hard life lessons being learned our way.
Dax has been out of his EA season for an injury for 8ish weeks. He’s been hurting for 6-8 months. We finally got him feeling good and headed to the tournament in Arizona this weekend. With the knowledge of doing everything right we prepared with all the right things and did all the steps we were supposed too.
Dax warmed up for the game, excited to finally be back, and as he was warming up again he tore something in his hip flexor.
As a mom my heart broke into a million pieces as he asked me how this could happen after all his hard work and dedication to getting better. How do I answer his questions, I have no idea. I just held him and told him how sorry I was.
I’m proud of how strong he is being, still cheering on the team when I know his soul hurts. Why do bad things happen when you’re doing all the right things. Hard life lessons. MRI on Wednesday 🙏🏼 by @megajacobsen

2️⃣0️⃣ years to us.
A couple months ago Greg and I were out to dinner, Greg was on the phone and I was ordering. It was nothing special, we weren’t in a fancy place, or had anything special going on. Greg started a while ago making Friday night our date nights, so we had run to grab some dinner.
After I ordered our dinner the waiter asked me if Greg and I were “together” I laughed and said “yes for a long time now” she then proceeded to give me a huge compliment she said “your chemistry is amazing, you can tell he loves you and you guys go very well together” I was kind of speechless, our interaction with this waiter was minutes if not seconds, and maybe she wanted a tip, maybe not, it doesn’t matter. I really appreciated it. Greg is my person. He calms my storms. He is the one my soul is meant to be with. We’ve had happy times, sad times and I would choose him all over again. Happy Anniversary love 20 years seems fast and slow all at once. 🤍 by @megajacobsen

Story time

Today marks two years since mom went to heaven. I still can’t breathe some days. It still doesn’t make sense and it doesn’t get easier. I still think about calling mom and asking questions or telling her about something I know she would be so proud of. The other day I was admiring a sunrise and knew that it was there specifically for me. My love language is sunrise and sunsets. When I moved to Utah my biggest complaint to my husband was there wasn’t any sunsets like Idaho 🤍 so for the past week mom had been sending me the best show every morning and evening, I feel like I can see right into heaven. I’m grateful she is doing ok. I hate that we are without her, there’s nothing that has proven that is better. Love you mom. by @megajacobsen

She turns 16 today and I can’t believe it. If I were to describe her in one word it would be STRONG when Halle was born she was a force to be reckoned and nothing has stopped her, and nothing will. She is thoughtful and content. Whatever she sets her mind to she will accomplish and I’m proud to be her mom. Happy Birthday sweet girl. @halle.jacobsen29 @livin_jacobsenlife by @megajacobsen

Love these boys. We had 10 games between 5 cousins, and loved all of it. I love that they all support each other. @karadie @devanraejacobsen @livin_jacobsenlife @hebervalleyunited by @megajacobsen

Today is our anniversary
Wonderful blessed years we have been together.
I’ve been thinking a lot about our early years, how different my perspective was and how I thought my life was going to look.
How grateful I am for the path we are on and that we are together.
Greg is definitely the better half, he is kind, patient, so hard working, and so strong 😊 but seriously, he carries our family in so many ways.
One of my favorite things about Greg is he is literally up for anything. He supports all my crazy ideas and always is there to help.
I love the way he looks at me, I love that our kids see a beautiful example of how to be a man and father.
Happy Anniversary my love. by @megajacobsen

Mom came and visited us tonight. Dax says “it’s momma” I’m so grateful he knows. The pain is real, I am grateful for the time we had with her today. That she knew we needed her. This was her favorite song. I can still hear her singing it. by @megajacobsen

Well the dreaded post.

It’s been 1 year
1 year of whys and hows
1 year of sadness
1 year of ‘did that really happen’
1 year of “how are you doing”
Not knowing the answer
1 year of crying, yelling, trying to forget yet not being able to wake up from the nightmare we went through.

Does it get better, people tell me it does.
It hasn’t.
I’ve questioned everything and truthfully haven’t gotten many answers.

I’ve asked really hard questions and haven’t gotten any real answers that make sense.

I still feel most days like I can’t breathe.
I have panic attacks
Then get up and keep going.

I know what my mom would say to me if she were here.
But she’s not.
And that’s not helpful.

1 year.
Now all the “firsts” are gone and that makes me sad, what will I forget. What will I not remember that I should.

It’s all gone. We’re left with sadness and darkness of the things we miss out on. The things I want her to see and she’s not here for. Don’t come at me and tell me she’s here with me. I want her here in the flesh.

How did this happen.

I caught between a pity party for myself and then guilt for all those who have lost loved ones even earlier than mom.

My mom wouldn’t want me sad, but what how am I supposed to feel. How do you go on.

1 stupid year. by @megajacobsen
