Инстаграм Мэнди Мур (Mandy Moore)

@sullivangrams is back with another HOT TAKE on #ThatWasUs !

When your backyard isn’t an option to host a birthday party anymore, you pivot to THE HAPPIEST place on earth for some 4th birthday magic!! Thanks @disneyland @disneyparks for helping us celebrate our most special Gus (who is now over 40 inches so the park was an entirely new experience for all of us)!!! Can’t wait to bring Ozzie and Lou back for more adventures. Also peep the last photo for what a successful day at @disneyland looks like. 💙💙💙💙💙💙

Happy 4th bday to our magic boy. It is so easy to celebrate you every day, Goosey. Your smile and laugh are insanely infectious. You know every name of every dinosaur and Tom Petty lyric. You are so tender and gentle with your sister (and brother most of the time- ha). You are always concerned when someone is sick or hurt and want to make them feel better. Your curiosity about the world around you keeps us present and on our toes. And your resilience and sense of adventure these last 6 weeks have been both miraculous and a gentle reminder that everything is going to be okay as long as we’re together. I love you beyond words and am so grateful you chose me to be your mom. We will never stop feeling like the luckiest to love and be loved by you. Happy Birthday, Gus!!

A huge thank you to my friends for helping me get dressed up to support @dawestheband at last night’s Grammys. My mind is in a million different places right now but I wouldn’t have missed it for anything. @barbdoeshair, @debraferullomakeup, and @ecduzit- you ladies are magic. Thanks for making me feel my very best. And thanks to the greatest ever (Cece, Andrea and Ana) for watching the kids so I could be there in person.

Now that the adrenaline has subsided, reality has a sharper focus and the anxiety manages to nestle in nightly. I’m trying my best to be present for them. I’m failing a lot of the time, tucked into my phone answering impossible questions, trying to keep the ship afloat while swimming in a pool of grief. With a shorter fuse. This pain and unease is unmooring. My family. My friends. My community. I drove back today for a doctor’s appointment for Lou and just kept repeating, “Oh My God”, over and over as I choked back sobs. I know I’ll have more to say down the road but I don’t have the bandwidth right now. There’s a definitive line that has left an indelible mark on my life but somehow these guys think we’re on the best adventure and I intend to keep it that way. Here’s Goosey keeping his sister entertained. ????????????????????

My sweet LouLou Bean. Hold tight to your loved ones, friends. Love you, LA.

2024. You were a year of completion and the deepest well of nearly impossible joy. You were also a year of unfamiliar waters. A year of transition, acceptance, excavating, building, rewiring. You brought us Lou…. And so many moments as a family that I will replay over and over as the years unfold. Trying to stay on my toes, relish in community and the company of loved ones… and remain as present as possible as we move into another year and chapter. Wishing everyone a safe, happy and healthy new year. Cheers to 2025!! ????
