Dearest

I was talking to Carter about heaven and how that's where our Grandpa Joel who died is. He asked if he was Dad's mom or grandma, and I said no, he is Dad's dad, also he was Grandma Gwen's husband, but now he is in heaven watching over us, but Grandma is still here with us. And then his face turned to pure sorrow and he said, "Dearest....Dearest....He shouldn't have done that!" I swear he was about to cry. It was so sad. I was like what? And he repeated himself, meaning that Grandpa shouldn't have left us like that. It was so cute! And he never even knew him. Dearest, dearest. What four-year-old says those things?
