Jamie has been on the phone a bit, making arrangements for travel to be with the family and touching base with everyone. Jonathan perceived that things were going on, but he wasn't sure what had happened.
Today I asked him about it a little bit, and explained that Uncle Jose had died and didn't get to be with us on the earth anymore. He asked a few questions and then remained silent about it until an hour later.
Jonathan: "Mommy? I bet Uncle Jose is sad that he doesn't get to put Elysa, Isaac and David to bed anymore."
Me: "Yes, I would think so."
Jonathan: "Mommy? I bet Elysa, Isaac and David are sad that their daddy can't put them to bed anymore and read stories to them."
Me: "Yes, I'm sure they are sad. I would be sad."
Jonathan: "Me, too."
Please pray for Jamie' family but especially for his sister and her three children.

My heart is heavy, too. I cannot imagine the heartache of losing a father at such a young age nor the heartache for Sara losing a husband.
Oh Sarah, I'm so sorry. That's horrible.

Jamie and Sarah, we are so sorry for your recent loss. My God bring you comfort in the midst of the pain.
Barb and Tim (Andy's folks)
