Looking back on this year, I will remember being with my family, celebrating life,

creating memories, being happy, and watching Gabriel and Olivia's childhood go by one step at a time.

We celebrated our niece Juliette and Stephan's marriage in Normandy and my nephew Jack and Jordan's marriage in California.

These memories overshadow my illness that weaved through the months of these good moments. Looking back, I realize that I would barely feel well and jump into the next moment. Whether it was work, family events, being with the children, or whatever came my way. I didn't give myself time to recover fully. I guess I thought I was a teenager and invincible.

What I have learned what I am learning is that being strong means taking care of oneself and heed to rest.

Thank you, 2022 for a year full of memories with my family and friends. 

May peace, joy, love, and good health follow us into 2023.

  1. Precious moments shared. How lucky and blessed you are to have so many wonderful memories to reflect upon. Yes take care of yourself dear one. I love you and may God bless us well in the coming year and always.
    Always I have candles glowing and prayers growing

  2. Such lovely photos. Thank you so much for sharing your life and family with us. May God’s peace, comfort and strength continue to be with you in 2023.

  3. Such a lovely collection – a year in photographs of your most beloved people. I’ve been given the generous gift through you, Corey, of witnessing the wonders of your family since Sacha was about 9 years old. It’s hard to imagine the length of time which has flown by. I’m always amazed by how very lovely everyone in your family is, and how well they seem to get along. My heart goes out to you in your health challenge and as I suffer similarly with severe asthma, I know something of what you’re going through. I hope you’ve also been tested for allergies as these often bring on the asthmatic attacks. I have a major inhaler which I use (2 puffs in the morning, and two puffs in the evening) and I also have a rescue inhaler which is albuterol and goes by various brand names. Also, I have a nebulizer, and an oxygen concentrator (and there are portable ones which you can carry with you like a shoulder bag. Probably you have all this, but I wanted to share because I am concerned about you. You’re in my prayers. Happy New Year and may God always Bless you and yours!

  4. Family is everything! Take care of yourself so you can be a full part of family. Happy 2023 to you and your tribe.
