Hi Emma G!

For the past week, I've been planning two fun trips! Returning to Costa Rica (I think this will be my 4th time) and a trip to Antarctica! The Antarctic trip leaves from Argentina and we will get on a special boat that is able to brave small glaciers and ice-covered water. Not many people can go to Antarctica for a grand adventure so it will be fun to learn about this place and to meet other world explorers (which is sometimes just as fun and educational as the trip itself!).

Soon you will be able to adventure out, and I hope you do. There is a big, happy world outside of Florida and the U.S. to travel and be free! I'm sure school can feel like an adventure at times...all the activities you are involved in and the friends you must have! Remember that school is also a safe zone. If you need someone to talk to, find your favorite teacher or someone at school. They are able to help you. Do you have a favorite teacher? Know that they're on your side.

If there is an opportunity to go abroad -- or go anywhere -- as a part of a school trip, do it! You will learn about how good most people are in the world, about healthy interactions among people, and the ingenuity of communities. 

As always, wishing you safety and happiness 💕

Love,

Auntie Jo

💥Happy New Year, EG! 2021 ✨ 

From your family and your daddy in Heaven.

Hey there little lady, the boys and I are sending you best wishes for your first day of school.

Not quite sure what your school situation is this year. 

I'll assume you are home schooling as that 

seems to be the trend these days. 

Sending lots of love,

Auntie DDé, Žan, Taj

August 16, 2020 - Round #3 for birthday fun!

Hi Emma G! We are going to a beach resort to celebrate Zan and Taj's birthdays and wish you were here to have fun with us! We are meeting a few of their friends, too. You are part of the crew and there's always a piece missing when you aren't around. It is not fair that you are missing all the fun and love and gifts we have to share. We will see you soon though...I know you are in touch with your heart and understand the truth. You are smart, not only in school but in your heart, too. Sometimes these very tough things that happen in people's lives make us more compassionate, savvy, and intuitive -- and I bet you are very compassionate, savvy, and intuitive! When you are able to call or text one of us, we are always ready to hear from you. 

Zan is now 10 and Taj is 9! They went to Legoland with their dad for their birthdays and to a mountain resort in North Carolina with their mom. They are getting taller and are doing well in school. They ask about you often. They ask where you are and why you can't play with us. We all miss you! Your birthday is coming up and I hope you have so much fun :)

Love,

Auntie Jo

Hey lady love,

Every once in a while there are songs that play on the radio that make me think of you. Do you remember when I made the promise to you that I would teach you how to dance? Well, that promise still stands. Choreography for you and your friends! 

Sometimes it is a long and windy road to the truth. We are confident that you are well aware of the truth. 

May we all be together again... sending you beauty and love, the truth and so much strength. 

Phone any one of us. I'm local ~> tel. 305-796-8819 

Blessings, Auntie DDé 💗

We missed you playing in the ocean!

Hi Emma G!

Auntie DDe and the boys went to Grammie and Grandpa's for two weeks...so I went too for a little while! We played in the pool and Taj nearly killed Grandpa with his golf cart driving! They ran off the road -- Grandpa didn't care but Grammie did! We played in the ocean one day. Zan and Taj are becoming better swimmers, more confident in their skills. They were boogie boarding for hours. We missed you. A lot. We will have fun again someday! Call or text anytime. Really, anytime. 510.374.8442

Love,
Auntie Jo

Hey there little lady!

For the past two weeks, the boys and I were visiting Grammie and Grandpa in NC. Auntie Jo flew in, as well, for a long weekend. You may have been far in miles, but you were there with us in spirit, in our thoughts, and in our hearts. 💕

This photo of you was in my direct view daily from all angles in the room we stayed.

Do you remember when this was taken? We have a few of these beautiful shots of you. 

Grammie, Auntie Jo and I have them on our walls showcased perfectly.

I have lain in bed many of sleepless nights over the past five years wondering about and praying for your safety. With every fiber of my being, I visualize and have every intention in seeing that you have everything that you need for a beautiful life, EG. Plenty of fun and friends, nutritious food, peaceful moments, lots of music, excellent education and family is how I foresee your days spent. When your daddy passed on, I realized just how precious life truly is and you are worthy of every precious tid bit life offers.

May you be blessed and protected always. 

You are a beautiful, intelligent and strong girl!

With love, Auntie DDé, Žan, Taj 💟

Hi Emma G! Do you remember this dress? Cute cherries all over. I bought it for you just because I thought you'd look nice in it...and you did!!

Feel free to text or call anytime! We are ALWAYS thinking about you. Here's my number: 510.374.8442 :)

Love,
Auntie Jo

Happy Father's Day 2020

Hello Emma Grace! 

I pray that by the time you are able to read through these posts you are feeling free and healthy and thriving. It is summertime! 

This is always my prayer. We have so much to share in the days and years ahead. Looking forward to reuniting because it has been five years of estrangement. That is a long time. Too long. 

I love these pics of you and your daddy! 

Precious!

I'll touch in again, EG. 

I have to get the boys from gymnastics then off to the beach with friends. 

Have a blessed beautiful day, little lady. Stay strong. Orient toward truth. 

We all love you, Auntie DDe'

Hey Little Lady,

How's it going today?

Do you remember your camp days at Naples Therapeutic Riding Center?

We have some darling photos of you enjoying horseback riding. 

Taj has been going there for the past few years. Zan loved the summer program. 

We think about you when we are there because your daddy was the one that introduced us to this fabulous organization. Ms. Missy still works there. We all send you love! 

Your cousins and I... and Grammie and Grandpa and Auntie Jo and all your old friends and paternal family love and miss you, Emma! We look forward to reuniting which will happen soon! 

Have a blessed and very safe day! BE STRONG - SPEAK UP -

Love, Auntie DDé

Prayers of Protection

Hey there little lady,
One day Taj and I lit candles for you at St. Williams. 
St. Williams is on Seagate Drive across from your old school.
Do you remember this church, Emma?
I thought I would share one of the many times we've lit candles for your safety, protection and clarity as you navigate these days.

Have a gorgeous day!
Be safe and stay strong!
Soon, we will reunite because that is what is right.

A Video for you, EG - xo

Hi Emma!

I wanted to make sure you had access to this video that was played at your daddy's Celebration of Life.  Below is the excerpt that accompanies the video. I wrote it back in 2015.

Celebrating the life of Todd Foege July 8, 1977- July 2, 2015

Dear family and friends of Todd Foege,

This video was created for his memorial service held in Naples, Florida on July 12, 2015.  It was woven between the different friends and family who shared eloquently from their hearts. Our family is forever grateful for all the love and support we have received. He will be missed, beyond words. Please keep his daughter, Emma Grace in your thoughts and prayers as her healing journey has just begun. It takes a village.. She is a bright, sensitive little girl with her entire life before her to wield magic and come into her power and purpose. The apple does not fall too far from the tree. 

These images and snippets of iphone vids were compiled from many sources and the movie was created quickly during a shocking and emotional week for all of us. Please excuse the quality of some of the images and any discrepancies.. 

Forgive fully, love deeply... Life is Precious. 

Rest in Peace brother,

Dama
