"It's nice to have mementos", she said. 'She' being a well meaning friend when asking if we have pictures of Leo.
We have 13 pictures of Leo, not all of which I'll even be able to keep. 13. That's all I get. Mementos. I have thousands of pictures of Max and he isn't yet 2 years old.
Every night when I read to Max before bed I ask Max to say "Leo, I love you.", "Leo, I miss you.", which he does in his sweet soft voice. The other night after Max said the above with my prompting, he followed up on his own and said "eeoo.. r you?".
My heart broke. Again.
This isn't going to stop anytime soon, is it?
I wish I could find comfort in this pain.
