We started our day with Matt and I leaving early Friday morning to go to the temple. Ally walked to school with the neighbor kids. My mom watched the 3 crazies. It was nice to get to go to the temple and be as close as we could to Cosette on her birthday. She's been gone almost 4 years and it's still tough to deal with. Ben had lots of questions, especially when he learned that Cosette wasn't going to be at the cemetary for him to see. He understands, I think, that she is his sister and he knows that she died and lives in Heaven. What he doesn't get is why Jesus won't let her come see him. So we talked about the second coming and what we believe is going to happen on that day. It's always nice to have a reason to talk to the kids about the gospel and for them to be in the position to want to listen and really know.
