Curious is sad Isabella moved.


Curious was telling the kids excitingly that when we move we can go to the park with Isabella, because we are going to move to live by Isabella. The girls told him this was not true... He totally broke down crying.

Curious was saying "But I really want to go to the park with Isabella so I can have fun with her, I really want to do it!"

I explain to him that Isabella lives too far away to go and visit.

He says "Ask Kerry how to get there, it is west or east I think, you can drive there."

So I say "We can call her on the phone and talk to her."

Curious says "But I really want to be with her and talk to her, not be away from her and talk to her...."

I understand him and comfort him, and then again offer to call Isabella later today..

He says "No not later today, I cant remember what she looks like."

I say "I will show you photos of her"

He says "But that is not the real girl. I want to see the real girl. I really want to look at her and talk to her."

I snuggle him and rock him and sing to him you are my sunshine.

He says "Well that made my tears dry, but I am still sad, I am still sad when my tears are dried."

I sang him the little blue man song.

He says "Mom I am happy now, I am happy... but I still want to go to the park with Isabella."
