Aren't kids amazing with things like this?? They are so resiliant! Sorry for your Mom's passing...
So What Happened?
Thank you all for your suggestions on books. My mother passed away on February 7th. The books I ordered hadnt arrived at the time of her passing. My daughter and I did talk about my mom dying two days before she passed and I was amazed at what my daughter told me about the process.. Taylor told me that her Mamu won't be sick anymore after she dies and that her Mamu will always be in her heart. I told Taylor that she could call Mamu anytime she wanted to on her cell phone but that Mamu couldnt speak back to her but would get her messages. My daughter seemed ok with all this. My mom passed away at 6:45pm on Tuesday night. I hadnt told my daughter what happened as I wanted to wait for my husband to be home too. When I went to pick up my kids, from the mil's house, it was close to 11pm. While driving home, my daughter asked to call Mamu. I gave her my cell phone to call my mom. My daughter said this to my mom's phone :"hello Mamu, it's me.. Taylor. I just want you to know that you are a beautiful angel now and that you get to meet other angels. You give the best hugs and kisses and I will miss you but you are in my heart always" . My daugther didnt need me to do anything for her. She and my mom seemed to have it all worked out. I am stunned with connection between my mom and daughter. I miss my mom.. I miss her so much. But at least I know that my daughter will be ok with all of this.

Thank you so much for this "So What Happened" follow-up.
Thank you for this! My MIL has decided to stop taking chemo, and seems to be getting worse everyday. I didn't have a clue how to talk to my 5 year old about it, but now I have an idea. God bless you and your family!
Sometimes kids understand things MUCH better than we give them credit for.... thank you for letting us know how things went.
Aaaaw, I love your story. I am so sorry about your mom.
We can learn so much from our kids, huh?
Sending you strength, Mom!
