Not long ago, I traded my Samsung galaxy phone in for one of the google pixel phones. Yesterday I opened up my phone to two "past" reminders...one of which happened 11 years ago, the other 10 years ago. For those who don't know what this is, google sends you pictures that have been taken in the past and reminds you of your memories that occurred on that same day a year ago, 5 years ago, 10 years ago, etc.
The first picture was of my wife Megan who was pregnant at the time. I took a picture of her 24 hours before she was diagnosed with severe preeclampsia. 5 days later she would give birth to our daughter Ava who was born on Sept. 24 at 25 weeks and passed away shortly thereafter on Oct. 2nd which is also my brother's birthday. The end of Sept. has been hard enough for my wife and I over the past 11 years, as it is a constant reminder of our lost daughter.
The second picture google sent to me happened 10 years ago. It was a picture of one of the nicest bucks my dad shot with his bow. He shot it on opening morning of the Wisconsin archery season. He was proud as punch. Ironically, yesterday also marked his 50th year on our land that we have been hunting. Yesterday I also got a call out of the blue from the land owner telling us that we were done hunting. No warning, no explanation, just told us we are done. He said to come and get our stands and he hung up the phone. After Ava passed away, that place was an absolute sanctuary to me and my dad. Other than my wedding day, my best memories have been on this land.
Just felt like putting my thoughts on electronic paper. Thanks for reading...just feeling entirely bummed out.
Maybe I should look into getting an I-phone.
