R.I.P

Salty
Aiden's white frog died this week. It is absolutely heartbreaking as a mother to see your child cry over a pet. I held Aiden in my lap for what seemed like forever, as he cried. I explained to him the process of life and death. Aiden's reply, 'Salty is with Jesus.' I felt my heart swell. I knew that even though this was hard for him, he knew that Salty will be okay. Within a few minutes he got up from my lap and went and grabbed his coloring supplies. Aiden drew a picture of his frogs, so he will always remember him.
