Maddie's doing a little better. On Saturday, she'd told Cathie that she'd gotten all the tears out of her and mostly just had happy thoughts about Janet. She saw Jack in church on Sunday and ran up to him and gave him a great big hug, it was cool to see. She'd even worn her special skirt that her and Janet had picked out last time the two of them had gone out together shopping. . On Sunday, she told Cath that her heart was feeling "a little bit sad still". I wish I came out of this whole thing with some great parenting wisdom or advice, but all we did was hold her and love her while we let her cry and we gave her room to be sad. Not sure I could write a parenting book based on that.
