After the recent passing of my mother I feel even further from the woman I am suppose to be in life without her guidance and her wisdom to help get me there. Experiencing a loss of such magnitude has me convinced that I will never be the same person I was before and I will be grieving the loss of my mom for the rest of my life. So How do we continue to live our life wholefully when a huge piece of ourselves is now missing? That is a question I ask myself everyday. Together we will seek answers to our questions and walk this long and painful journey towards healing, together.
The first time my daughter told me that she missed her grandma didn't happen until three months after my mom's passing and when it did I fell apart. It is a bitter sweet feeling in those moments. Bitter because their heart is hurting, and sweet because that person's memory is still alive and has not been forgotten. But how do you respond? Do you avoid it completely? Do you Sugarcoat it and make it seem like something it's not? We all handle conversations with our kids differently and there is not one correct way to handle them. In my opinion, Talking to your kids on a mature level about death (once age appropriate of course) can only better their chances of handling loosing us one day, or anyone for that matter in a better way. Whatever life skills we can instill in them now to prepare them for life without us one day...is crucial. If you can't Keep these convos completely sugar free... Maybe ease up a little on the sugar?
