Wes is One Month Old Today!
Estimated reading time: 0 minutes, 58 secondsWes Jude Nucero is one month old today!
My second grandchild was born on July 3, 2022, and his middle name is in honor of Jan, the love of my life, Mike’s mom, and Wes’s grandmother.
It is also a nod to Jan’s love of music, especially The Beatles, and specifically to their song Hey Jude.
God, in her infinite and divine wisdom, had Wes Jude born fourteen months after Jan died. Wes Jude’s birth on that day is a true blessing for Jan, Jude, and our family.
Until Wes Jude’s birth, I had counted the months since Jan died. Now I measure the months since his birth.
It does not obscure the pain of losing Jan; instead, it reminds me of life’s miraculous beauty.
Our love will never die.
