~My little DARLINGS~

What do I say when after family prayer Gaige says, "Mom don't worry, Dad will come home, we're his family."? And when Trey cries almost daily still and it's a month later cause he wants his Dad home saying, "I want my family reunited." or "I just want it to be like it use to be." Treyson is by far having the hardest time, and showing a lot of emotion. What do you say? I have tried to explain some things to them, but they don't really get it. They are old enough to know what's going on, but yet it just makes no sense to them.

To my little ones:
I am sorry you are hurting. If I could take this away and change things I would do it in a heart beat. Don't ever forget how much you are loved.There are so many people that love you and are worried about your well being. I love you more than I can express. Thank you for choosing me as your mom. You guys are so little, but yet always show concern for mom. I'm sorry that when you go with Dad you now worry about leaving me behind. Thanks for thinking of me right now, but I want you to focus on the time you have with your Dad and enjoy it! You guys are my most prized possession and I will do anything I can within my means to protect you from the evils of the world and make sure you are raised in a loving home with the gospel in your lives.
ALL MY LOVE,
MOM

Mindy if you need ANYTHING! I am only a second away. I am sorry about all that is going on. I think of you often and have you in my prayers. I just wanted you to know that I am here for you and just right across the street if you need me.
