Long Day - December 9th

We had a long day on 12/9 after a long week that started when my mom passed away on 12/5. After we came back from the church post-funeral it was just Liana and I in the house. I was helping her get changed and she told me she was going to draw a picture for Grammie Danubio. It would be all the shapes like squares, rectangles, ovals, circles...you get the idea. She had been at the church after all the services and burial were over and there were a lot of people there. I asked her if she wondered where Grammie was. Liana then told me she was in Heaven because she died (proving that she was listening when we told her this a couple days earlier). Then she asked me how she died and if it was because she was old. I told her Grammie was sick and couldn't get better. She had some more questions to ask and then circled back to the picture she was going to draw. She said we could give it to her tomorrow and I explained again that we wouldn't see Grammie for a long long time. It made me sad to know that Grammie is loved so much by little Liana and vice versa but neither would get to experience that love in a meaningful way on this earth.
