A hard time saying goodbye

Isaac is having a hard time with Great Grandma being gone. He'll ask his cousins if they miss great grandma, and when they say yes he'll say in the saddest voice "I miss great grandma too".

The other day he asked to see GG and I told him no, she died. She was gone. He asked if she went far away. I asked him if it would help to think that she was far away. Again, in the saddest voice he says "no, not really".

Every time my eyes well up as my heart breaks a little bit more.

Tonight he asked to go back to where we interred GG's ashes soon. We asked why (since it's a 4+ hour drive away) and he said so we can see if GG is alive again.

It's a lot for a 3.5 year old.

He's got a lot of questions, and they seem to pop up randomly. I'm not sure if he's thinking about it even more than he's saying. It's going to take a while I think.
