Dylan is really starting to talk now. I've really enjoyed watching his language develop, but I should have known that it would come back to bite me in the ass. I now know that he's been picking up on everything that has been going on....he just hasn't been able to express it until now. Several times this week he has told me "no cry, mommy" when he sees me crying about Joe. And tonight when we had company over, he decided to say "daddy, die" over and over again until I acknowledged that he was right. Its just one more milestone the kids have reached that has been ruined because of the sadness that comes along with it. Its hard to enjoy his newfound vocabulary when its a constant reminder of Joe.
