It never fails....

It never fails that Kendall would put a smile on my face when I really just wanted to cry. I debated whether or not to bring Kendall to the visitation because I wasn't really sure what a 3 year old would grasp or understand and I wasn't really sure it was the place for her. Aunt Paula and grandma seemed to think she needed to be there~at least for a little while. So I brought her last night for a bit. She sees pictures of my grandma and grandpa and my mom tells her they are with Jesus. She also prays at school and learns about Jesus, so she gets some of it. So I picked her up from daddy's yesterday and while getting her ready let her know that Uncle Mike was with Jesus now but that we needed to go say good bye. She said "okay momma". On the way INTO the funeral home she says "so this is Jesus' house?" I told her Jesus has a lot of houses - but yes for right now it was his house so he could be with Uncle Mike. She seemed okay with that (yet then asked if Santa lived there too.....) We were inside for a bit and she found grandpa - and she wanted him to hold her and the way he stood made it so that she was looking right at Uncle Mike....so she pokes grandpa and says "there's uncle mike - he's sleeping so we won't wake him up" grandpa says yup yer right and then this part just gets me, she said "he's sleeping with Jesus" grandpa says yes you're right. Then she starts looking around with a confused look and asks "well, where's Jesus?" Priceless- I'm sure she was like "where is this guy I pray to everyday? I finally think I'm gonna meet him and he's not here!!" I'm mad b/c I know I have better pictures of Uncle Mike - but I'm gonna have to keep searching........for now, this is what I have...
