"Come on buddy." She said to the six year old. This was the very first time she was taking him out to see his grave. It was Castle's birthday today. Alexis and Martha were going to come see his grave later. When she saw his headstone her stomach did a tornado.
"Why are we here mom?" he asked curious he saw the headstone but didn't make the connection
"This is your father's headstone buddy." He had always known his dad was dead but seeing the headstone made it real for him. Tears flowed down his face like a river.
"Can we go home mommy." He asked this was all way too much for him. Maybe she should have waited a couple more years. But he had gotten really curious this year. She had told him he was gone the first time he asked that he was gone. And had told him he was dead when he was ready. But maybe this was all too real for the little boy.
"Yeah we can go home remember Alexis and you grandma and grandpa are coming over tonight for dinner."
"Ok mommy."
