Denise, you did the right thing. We as parents try and protect our children
from these painfull situations when in reality they must learn how to deal
with them and their feelings on their own. It makes them strong. Having closure is important for Lauren as well as yourself. That was a good idea
to bury Maddie's things. It was closure for both of you. It was an awful
thing that happened and life just throws these things in from time to time
and we have to somehow deal with them in our own way.
Prayer's coming that you and your family's hearts heal and maybe soon
bring another little furbaby into your loving home. Memories of your
precious Maddie will always be close to your heart.
Hugs, |
