But now, only a couple weeks later, the Booksmart actress can’t assist however grieve the connection her kids ought to have gotten to develop with their grandmother. She defined in Tuesday’s put up:
“It has been 6 years since my Momby died (feels like 2 but also like 705 at the same time?). And unlike most other years since she’s died, this year, these past two weeks have been some of the most joyful of my life. Giving birth to my daughter and watching my son meet her have been two of the most magical moments I have ever experienced. But with the magic of life tends to come the reality of grief. My mom is not here to meet either of them and isn’t here to experience any of the magic. Sometimes the magical moments can also be the hardest. That’s the thing about grief.”
Ugh, we will solely think about how troublesome it’s been… Especially being so younger, herself! She continued:
