Last night as S19 was going through some of his things, he gave D16 his high school Hoodie that he wore tons last year. She held it as if he was dead. She wore it today and when I asked if it was his, she just said yep.

She and her brother are super close and as she pointed out to me during one of my crying spells, I am not the only one hurting. S22 said he even cried over lost time with his brother. They have drifted apart over the past 3 years but recently have begun to get close again. So we all are feeling it. S19 is good at hiding his feelings but he will let them out now and then.

Time to put on the brave Mom face for all of my kids.
