Sigh

"Is Charlotte still dead" my almost six year old dd asked me yesterday. "Yes". Its so hard to explain death to young kids. Her cousin was killed early Sunday in a car accident. It was easier to explain her great grandmother's death due to age than this senseless death. All week she has been watching Charlotte's Web too. Next week Saturday will be the funeral so hopefully Caitlin will be more accepting of this sad situation. My other daughter is upset as this is a trigger for her. The family lost two small cousins five years ago. Brie was only six when it happened. For a long time she was afraid her sister would get run over (the girls were run over by their mother's truck in a freak accident). Brie has been moody and grumpy all week. Yuck!
