This blog is a story of two parents, both special educaton teachers, trying to raise a first grader and a precocious preschooler. We love to travel, cook, tend to our "backyard farm", and spend time with each other.

So Aware
Izzy is fascinated with the cemetery when we pass it on the way to shopping.She first thought people died there. We have been trying to correct that to people are buried there. On our way to Halloween, I am sitting in the middle of the girls in the back, Paul and Auntie Kari are in the front. We pass the cemetery and Izzy yells out that is where people are buried. She then spouted out that people who are buried there go to heaven. She says, "Hey Auntie Kari? Do you know who is in heaven?" Auntie Kari doesn't even get a chance to reply when Izzy says, "Auntie Lindsay is in heaven. She was Mommy's very best friend." So of course I can barely contain the tears. She has never said anything like this nor made the connection before. That girl is just too sweet. Just wish Auntie Lindsay had more time. She would have loved Izzy (and Rees too).
