Journal: This Morning

This morning, she asks me,

Is she in heaven

with Babydoll?

 

Probably not together,

I tell her,

your grandmother

didn’t like snakes.

 

Cats?

Yes.

Doggies?

Yes.

 

I love her, Mommy.

Yes, honey, I know.

 

She loves you too.

Just leave it to our children to remind us how special each day is.
