[Mom2BabyNatalie]

I want to thank everyone for your words of comfort and prayers...

I haven't yet told Drew.... he comes home in a little more than a week and I'm debating on whether to wait until he's home... I just hate to share such sad news over the phone....

I know at 11, they need their Mom a little less.... but I think he's going to need some time with Mommy on this one...

We buried Sam in the flower garden in our backyard... he was a little upset that we had Natalie cremated (thank the good Lord, the kids were gone to their dad's for Christmas when that happened) - but it seems that he felt like he "missed out" on not having that "place" to just go to be with her. Having her ashes comforts me... but I feel like Drew would have wished Sammy to be buried close to him.... I hope we did the right thing.

When he comes home, we'll go together and pick out a special angel to adorne Sam's grave.... I think that will help him heal a little.

Thank you all once more.... you are so appreciated.
