I lost my Daddy

My mother picks up the children from school every Friday to give me an afternoon to myself.

Today, when they got in the car, my son told her, "Grandma, I have a secret to tell you. But you have to roll up all the windows so no one can hear."

So she did. Then he told her, "I lost my daddy."

He preceeded to tell her about his dad not coming home last night.

  1. What worries me most about this is that he said "I lost . . " How is he doing in counseling?

  2. Yeah, I am very worried about both kids. They are having a lot of emotional outbreaks and H. is having really bad stomach pains.

    Counseling is going well but he's still strugging. We had a nice date last night and we were able to talk a lot about what he thinks about things. I think it in some ways it is easier for him this time than his sister because he is able to articulate things so much better.
