Owen gave us this letter the other night at dinner. He handed it to me first. I gave him a little bit of grief over the names. Dad and Mom? Who are they? :) I thought I was Mommy. Who is this Mom person? O just smiled and patiently waited for me to open and read the letter.

Tears rolled down my face as I read this. What a thoughtful letter from our seven year old boy, dealing with his grief the day after he was told that Keeters had died.
I love you so much.
Thank you for everything.
I am so sad that Keeters died.
God is the best he helped Keeters stay alive longer.
I miss him.
I don't know that I could have said it any better.
