There's still time to reflect on the darker things before spring comes and we can get back to action.

A lot of you...Thank you all for your kind thoughts. A lot of your comments about Maggie have helped me greatly.<BR/><BR/>Because Jed doesn't believe in heaven, I've been letting him explain death to Annabel. What I've learned is that toddlers will accept pretty much anything you tell them, so long as you realize you will have to repeat yourself at least once a day.<BR/><BR/>I'm not sure how much she understands, but she seems accepting. Everyday when she gets home and we say "Hello" to Maddy, she asks "Where's Maggie."<BR/><BR/>Jed explains that she's gone and isn't coming back but that we can remember her and she moves along to another conversation.<BR/><BR/>Jed seems to be OK, too. I think he's putting his grief into carting my dog around with him where he can so she won't be lonely.toyfotohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17925976386177377987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11830870.post-20451220170609339712007-03-08T00:31:00.000-05:002007-03-08T00:31:00.000-05:00Hi.

I am a few days behind on reading your blog (we are sick around our place too.) <BR/>I read your last post and have sat here crying for the longest time. This one inspired a stream of tears as well... <BR/>I am so sorry for your loss... <BR/>and your sickness... <BR/>hang in there, take care of yourself and here are wishes to feel better!Mistyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09505420894898738638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11830870.post-24505505060953741692007-03-07T21:37:00.000-05:002007-03-07T21:37:00.000-05:00Does Annabel understand about Maggie?
