[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 500322, member: 1722"] Thank you everyone. Duckie is, of course, very understanding that her birthday will be quite a bit different than we first envisioned it. But it still makes me sad to watch my little girl be so brave. It's too mature. Children shouldn't have to deal with adult stuff like this repeatedly (she's already lost two other grandparents, a great-grandparent and a great aunt over the last several years). It's making her far too wise for her tender years. She has attended wakes for her friend's grandparents because she feels she understands what her friends are feeling. What elementary aged child willingly does that? And DDD~ please tell me that juxtaposition means something along the lines of putting two things side by side, as to compare them? If not, I've had the wrong definition floating around my head for many years. [/QUOTE]
