This photo promted a conversation two nights ago. I always wondered when these conversations would start and how we would go about it. With Peter so into wondering what things are and asking the question 'why' to any answer I provide him, this conversation went something like this:
Peter: "mommy, what this?"
Me: "it's a ring with the initials on your older brother Isaac."
Peter: "where is he?"
Me: "he lives in Heaven, with Jesus, and your other brother Luke. Isaac and Luke are twins like Aaron and Abigail"
Peter: "why them with Jesus?"
Me: "because that's how God planned it."
Peter: "oh"
It was that short...that sweet...that wonderful.
The conversation has been started.
How much he absorbed or will remember is unknown. But he cared, I could see it in his eyes. He processed it, if only for that night. He'll learn more about it, about them, in the near future.
I also have a ring that has Luke's initials but I can't seem to find it...it's probably in the big bag of things from the hospital.

I love Peter so much that is so cool. I can't believe that he is getting so big. It made cry to read what he said. I am so glad that God gave you Aaron and Abigail also. I love your whole family. Thank you so much for all you do for me with Ashley also.
Love You,
Carolyn and Ashley
