I hope every single person reads this heartrending profile of a generous and decent couple who loved each other, their son, and their Queens neighbors. I have followed this story, and I am grateful for the reporting by @corinaknoll @nytimes https://t.co/YyJfHhOcv0
for those of you who are in loving relationships w/o kids, i rly hope you take a moment this weekend and celebrate the fuck out of that fact. google photos just popped up a photo of me and my SO from 6 years ago and now i can’t stop crying. our love was so diff back then.
