Well, that was easily one of the worst experiences of my entire life... All three started crying hysterically, asking why and not understanding why mommy and I can't just fix things... Horrible. I did use Wonka's words and tried very hard to make it clear that I do not want this. Which led to questions of why it is happening because if I don't want it then I can change it. Oh if only it were that simple.
Just spending time playing with them now and they are no longer crying or pouting -- which I am sure makes W think they are just fine. I know we are not done dealing with their feelings over this... Just praying that God continues to create consequences that she has do deal with over this. One observation -- she was completely expressionless while she was telling the kids. Once they started crying and asking questions she acted like none of it affected her... Not sure if it's because she is just that detached from her own emotions or if that was just her way of dealing with the pain we inflicted on our own children in that moment this morning. Who knows what was going on in her head... In my heart and head I was falling apart while seeing their pain... Horrible experience.
