*~ say a little prayer ~*
Yesterday the kids and I flew over to the South.
And today Mamie was taken to hospital for a major surgery.
Those of you who have followed my blog for a while will have an idea of just how much I love her. How much my children love her.
Here I've been struggling to find words to say. To our brave Mamie. To Papi Jean, who seems lost and utterly paralyzed by the severity of the situation.
And I've been dreading the questions I see in the eyes of my sons.
That will be asked. That must be answered honestly.
So. It's 5 o'clock in the morning and only this beautiful old house is keeping me company.
Here we are in the darkness, competing over who can sigh the deepest.

But I do have one more trick up my sleeve.. Reserved especially for those neverending nights such as this one.
I"ll take my pillow and go sleep on the floor of the children's room.
Just listening to their breathing pushes the ruthlessness of this world a little farther away ♥.
