and Patrick isn't. It sucks. It's not fair... but I know there is a plan. Even if that plan wasn't my plan. I feel so bad for Will and Reese. I know they don't understand now, but they will, soon enough. I can't figure out if it's better they are so young so... they aren't grieving, yet missed out on having Patrick as they grow or if it's better they don't know any different. My mind goes back and forth about this daily. Perhaps I will never have the right answer. At least Will has photos and videos of him with Patrick. Poor Reese doesn't have anything other than photos of me and Patrick while I was pregnant with her.
Last Father's Day we were at home, as family. Today we are in Virginia visiting my BIL, Sean...without his own dad or brother. He is here playing minor league baseball. I haven't seen him since the day after Reese was born when he had to go back to spring training. It's nice to be here, with both of my BILs and my dad on Father's Day. Happy Father's Day, Dad!
Here is a little video from Father's Day morning 2008.
