Garrett: "Mommy we should go check on your mommy" Garrett never got that Mom was also his beloved Grandma.
"G, my mom was Grandma"
"Oh Mommy I'm so sorry" he said as he put his hand on my leg.
"And Grandpa is my daddy"
"Grandpa must be very sad that he lost Grandma"(Lost is a very abstract concept for a 3 yr old, when all we've said is dead) "Tomorrow I will take Grandpa something special to make him feel better"
So after the burial, at lunch, Garrett gave Grandpa a piece of bubble gum. A very special piece of bubble gum.
