One our dear friends had a terrible tragedy where they lost their daughter at a very young age, unexpectedly. Since Hudson was friends with her, we had many conversations with him about God, life, love, and heaven. We worked hard to help him find peace through a difficult and shocking time. Finn was little. I don’t remember his exact age, but maybe one or two? One afternoon as Shane and I were talking in the kitchen about our friends daughter being in heaven, Hudson asked if she would ever come back? We said no...and tried, again, to explain the finality of death to his young, impressionable heart. He stood there, quiet for a bit, then made a statement to Shane that would scar my heart for the rest of my life. ***** “Daddy, if Leila (what he used to call me) dies...then you could go back and marry mommy again! Annnnnnd….we could take Finn with us!!!” ***** I know, I know...he’s just a child. I know, I know...
