Another Blessing

“Saying goodbye to a loved one while simultaneously experiencing the joy of welcoming another into this world is the great cycle of life,” she began.
She continued, “It is also my most challenging season to date. I can’t help but think this was the universe’s plan all along, knowing I would need other worldly joy to cushion the blow of losing one of the most important people in my life,” adding, “Yet, this is proof that love, life and loss can profoundly exist all at the same time. Gram, I miss you every day. Little one, we are so excited to meet you. I breathe a sigh of peace knowing you two are already connected in such a cosmic way.”
Losing Her Grandma
On January 31, Mitchell expressed her grief over her grandma’s death.
“I think anyone who knows me knows the relationship I have and have always had with my, ‘Gram,'” she wrote. “Although inevitable, it would nevertheless be one of the hardest things I would ever have to go through the day she’d pass.”
“She was and will forever be my best friend. From the imaginary games she would play with me when I was little to picking me up from high school because I was being bullied, to keeping scrapbooks of every article and magazine cover I have ever been in, she was my # 1 cheerleader,” the actress added.
Mitchell is already a mom to Atlas Noa, 2, with longtime boyfriend, Matte Babel, 41.
