Sweet Sunday Morning



We've had a rough couple of days having said "Goodbye" to our sweet, sweet Jessie Girl. I think I hear her in the house at least three times a day and it takes everything in me to not completely lose it. The difference between losing Jess versus Oddie, is that we've had to consider how it would effect Liam. The last thing we wanted to do is scar him emotionally, so we talked with the teachers and PhD students at his school and Kris (she worked at the Sharing Place where they help children after losing a loved one). Liam and I made a book of pictures of Jessie and we talked about heaven and that families are forever and after a few tears and Liam saying that he wanted to go with Matt to take Jessie to HF, he has been good. He didn't say anything about it on Friday but yesterday when we were walking out to the car to go dinner he asked me, "Is Jessie outside mom?" I said "no" and left it at that  and then he asked "is she in heaven with HF?" I said "yes" and then he said, "she is happy, I can't wait to see her again." 
That was it and he went about his business like a happy 2 1/2 yr old.

The boys and I have had a fun Sunday Morning in bed....singing songs & snuggling. George gets a lot of love from his big brother and is such a good sport about it. I can't get the video of Liam singing to download, but here is a clip of George at 11 weeks. He is super alert, smiley and talks up a storm...(of course I can never get it all on camera) here you go!
