Update

Thank you ladies so much for your kindness and compassion yesterday. The day ended up going better than I was expecting. Will had already heard about Meno's mom (although all the details were wrong), but not about the baby. We had several short discussions about it through out the rest of the day. I can tell his little mind is just turning and he is trying to process everything. He'd ask a few serious questions or make a serious comment, followed up with a fart joke. Totally a nine yr. old (and totally an offspring of both Jeff and I:). I really think he's going to be just fine, but that it will take some time for him to sort of grasp what has happened. Right now he is acting like the worst part is not having Meno there everyday, but I'm sure his little brain is thinking up a storm in there. I can see it in his eyes. He's thinking and thinking hard. We are just going to have to watch him very carefully and make sure he feels like he can talk/cry or express whatever emotion he is he is feeling. He's a sensitive little guy. Always has been. Thanks Hayley for the idea about getting Meno's info. I know someone who thinks they can track them down and Will seemed excited to call him. I think he wants to talk to Meno himself to KNOW that he is actually okay after all of that sadness.

Again, thanks for all your comments. You all really touched me. It's amazing to feel that sort of support from people that I've mostly never met. Thankyou.
