Hey buddy,

Just thinkin about ya.

I miss you. Your sweet voice, your smile, your laugh, your style and you video calling me when you went shopping and were trying stuff on, asking me every night if I wanted to play games with you, calling you just to talk, talking about cars and how stupid Teslas are, our bickering and mom and dad telling us to be nice to each other, skiing with you and you giving me so much crap for not being a snowboarder, you running errands with me on my days off, helping you learn to drive, you showing me your latest project that you were working on - making RC cars, the newest car you designed in Forza, all the vehicles you made in Trailmakers, your artwork, fixing up the 4runner, the clothes you were making. I miss watching you babysit or play with kiddos, how you were always down to try something new with me, always bringing me cool rocks or sending me pictures of animals and bugs you saw. I miss everything.

I'm noticing I didn't have many recent pictures of us together. Only bits of moments other people captured of us. Hurts my heart I won't get more moments here with you.

I will always love you more. by @reitzlilly

I had the absolute best models walking for me in the 1330 Design Collective fashion show yesterday! I ended up walking in my own design at the last minute but other than that it was a perfect day!

This boy would be graduating this year. Never not thinking about him... The kids at my work are all giving me their grad announcements and it makes my heart ache.... i love that they love me enough to want to give me an announcement...🥲 but I'm hurting that my brother doesn't have one to give to me.

I miss you deep, Michael.

The song cuts off.. so I guess I'll have to make another reel with the last half of the song & more pictures of me and him. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Love you kid. 🖤 by @reitzlilly

Missing my boy today. Holding onto the beautiful memories. Gratitude doesn’t erase the grief, but it reminds me how deeply we loved—and still love—Michael. ❤️‍🩹 this marks 20+ years of seeing @transsiberianorchestra live. Our 2nd without him. This videos shows how much fun and joy he brings to our world. His ever-present rock Rock t-shirt, his rock n roll hair, his laughter and smile live on. Check out flylikemike.org (link in bio) to follow and support the work were doing with @flylikemikefoundation to honor his memory and support families affected by suicide.

I miss this kid.

Too many things to say, so many thoughts. I've been thinking about posting something for a while. But can't seem to come up with a caption that makes sense about how I feel.
Here are some moments/ thoughts-
1- I wore Porsche on his angel day.
2,3,4,5 & 6- We spent sooo much time together when I was still in high school and he was in elementary and middle school.
7 & 8 - he was constantly in my room playing games and singing (if you can name the game he is playing on the phone - I'll give you a high five). He was so annoying, but I loved spending time with him.
9- he would let me do his hair for concerts, I think this one was a trial run for our Papa Roach meet and greet. We were doing "Jacoby Shaddix" hair.
10 & 11- he always needed to be where the people were, which was usually when Benjamin came over back when we were dating.. which meant Michael was always **right there**. Im sure my parents loved that
12 -dobby's absolute need to be on top of Michael if he was around
13 - This is one of my favorite videos... I had JUST told him to hit the geode carefully - fully knowing how his brain worked (because we have the same brain)
14 - One of Michaels friends sent us this vid - I just love how cool he looks in this vid. He was legit the coolest person I knew.
15- Michael HATED being recorded at concerts. I took this one at the NF concert we went to. My fav concert buddy (sorry not sorry everyone else). Now I can post them ALL. Suck it Michael.
16- I watched this number tick up on Xbox ... We played the night before and I felt weird knowing it would never reset.
17- I have dozens of texts like this I could share. We texted every day. I was going through our old texts today and I think we may have been the funniest people on earth.

I miss these moments but also love looking back on them.

Anyways.. long post..🤷🏼‍♀️ I just miss this kid more than words.

Things get better. I promise.🩶
