Oh My Sara

"Mommy, you know that four would be a nice number for our family, but three is a pretty good number too!"

"Do you think Seth knows that I would be the best big sister ever?"

"You know Mommy, even if Seth doesn't come home, we can still love him in our hearts."

"If Seth doesn't come home can we finally get a dog?"

"That Seth, he's a little stinker for not coming home."

"It's OK if Seth doesn't come home - you have ME - and remember, I'm your favorite anyway!"

I wish we could all have the wisdom, logic, and confidence of a six-year-old...

This court thing is insane. I think that Sara would make a great big sister too and still hold hope that she will be Seth's big sister.

I do not think a blog post ever made me cry as much as this one . I always think of all all three of you even if you are the one writing the post.
Sending more good thoughts to all of you for what I am sure is another hard night.
