Luke, this is one of the most important things right now...how you handle this with your son.

Please be very careful what you say to him. He will be looking to you as his touchstone. If you are ok, he will be, too. He is looking and listening very closely. While you cannot be the one who forges their relationship, it is your job not to do anything to harm it. He needs his mommy.

And sweetie, you will have some serious ups and downs in the coming weeks. It's normal. This is a shock to your system. So be kind to yourself.
