Ethan and Emily

After we were done visiting with Emily at the hospital on Saturday we started making the long (2 1/2 hours) drive back home and we had this conversation with Madi.

Madi: "I thought we were going to the hos-pit-tapal?"

Me: "We were just at the HOS-PI-TAL Madi. Mommy went to visit Emily. Emily is still very small and she can't come home yet. Someday you will get to meet Emily, ok?"

Madi: "Yaaaa....well, Emily is at the hos-pit-tapal and I want to see her."

Me: "Maybe next time you can. And do you remember mommy telling you about Ethan? Remember I had two babies, but Ethan went back to Heavenly Father....Ethan passed away, Madi."

Madi: "Yeah, Jesus has Ethan now. And Ethan is with Heavenly Father too, in Heaven."

Me and Ryan: "Yes, Ethan is in Heaven with Heavenly Father and Jesus. But he will always be your brother and will always be in our family."

Madi: Pondering for a while.... "Yaaaa, Ethan is with Jesus Mom."
