It was a weekend of pain and grief. Apart from listening and trying to make sense of the situation, we didn’t know what else to do because we know, no amount of comfort could soothe the distraught. We were equally burdened with our heavy hearts. Thank goodness we have the boy around. He brought some comfort to the family with his little quirks and funny moments.
Before becoming a mother, I’ve heard people telling me that kids can do wonders especially if you’re feeling blue. I definitely concur now. A hug from my 5-year-old always make me feel better. And for his daddy, the boy has always been his source of emotional comfort.
So even though we couldn’t do much to help, I was glad the boy brought some cheer to the otherwise miserable day. He may not be an Incredible boy, but he is certainly the family’s wonder boy!
Sounds terrible! I don’t know what happened, but I hope you are ok

Must have been terrible whatever you are experiencing, glad the boy is helping.
It’s true, kids can really bring us joy and comfort, and take our minds off from our grieve and stress.

Thanks everyone for your concern.
I’m fine personally although much saddened. It’s something in the family we need to deal with together.
