Hudson, My Love,
You are a very very special child. You were born under a very special star. Always remember that.
Codi died a few weeks ago and it has been difficult on us all. You cried and you have been trying to process it all. Your thoughts before you went to bed tonight were so sweet, so honest and so true that I cried!
You have really talked about Codi and tried to process that she isn't coming back. The other day, you grabbed her picture, started chewing on the wood frame it was in and started to cry. It was so sad, yet so important!! It's important to cry when you are sad and it is ok to be sad and let it out. Don't forget that. Daddy and I watched you with heavy hearts and hugged you tightly.
Tonight before bed, you were very introspective for a boy of 5. You talked about Codi. You asked if Dog heaven was in space or in the sky. Then, you asked where God lived - space or sky - and if God was dead-- "Where is God? How is He everywhere and why can't we see Him?" Then, you explained that one of your classmates did not believe in God and she had said that God was dead. You couldn't believe that your classmate had said that. I told you God was everywhere.
You continued, "If Codi comes back... Wait, she is never coming back, right? She had a stomach bug, and I understand mamma, the bad stuff took over the good stuff in her body." Then, you talked about how she was happy in dog heaven - eating and playing - and we both agreed that we would meet her tonight in our dreams and play.
BUT THE VERY BEST PART the part that moved me, and I quote:
"I will always be connected to Codi. There is an invisible line from my heart to her in dog heaven. A line with the heart at the end of it and the line cannot break because love never dies."
WOW. You are so profound. You made me introspective. I thought of my father. I sure love you sweet boy. You have a beautiful heart Hudson. It's deep and soulful.
