All in all a good memorial by the sound of it. A very nice way to remember somebody special.
As for you son - yeah, teens. They do stuff like that. As for the W - well, they do stuff like that too. One day they look around and realize their "baby" is all grown up like it happened in a blink. For them, it does. For the rest of us and the kids, not so much.
I was talking to a friend today, Wet. He mentioned he was going to take his wife to a jeweler and have her pick out something nice for her birthday. I asked him why he doesn't do it and he said because she likes to. This is his third wife. He mentioned his second wife and how crazy is infectious. It was a short-lived marriage to say the least because she was nuts-o. He had to get rid of her because of it.
Life has a lot of twists and odd things that happen we don't expect. Raising a teen is one of those challenges, right? I wouldn't expect your W to come to her senses and be the old w regarding raising him. At least not anytime soon. She drowning in her own world and can't see out of it like a normal person would. That may be her new normal, Wet.
Perhaps at some point a good memorial for W will be in order. Not as in I'm wishing her dead, but more for the old W that is gone. Good memories, but that person isn't here any longer.
Just some thoughts.
