I really didn't plan on having the boys this weekend. I have been pretty fragile and just getting to where I am making an attempt to get in the game of life. Ayden was sitting on the couch and Rylan was starting his tantrums. I asked Rylan if he could do Nana a big favor and be an extra good boy today. He asked why, I told him, Nana is a little sad and she doesn't want to hear fighting and crying. Ayden turned to me and said "I know you are sad because of Miss Robyn and I'm sorry Nana."
That he could comprehend something like that blew me away and also let me see that this child is as compassionate as I brag about. I got the news when the boys were here last weekend. I hid everything from them. I know maybe one of their parents might of said something but for him to still remember and "get" it, really caught me by surprise.

It always amazes me how smart and 'in it' kids are. I wish you hugs and love, too, that your healing will be fast and gentle.
Ah, from a child comes the best of love and compassion. Hugs, Kay. Lots and lots of quiet, hard hugs.
Thanks guys! Time is our best healer, every day is a tiny step back to normalcy but still a long way away. Kids are a wonderful distraction. :)
