The other day we passed a military cemetary. “Is that where you’re going to be buried?” I asked Den. “It depends. Whatever you want,” he replied. I informed him that I wanted to be buried with Devin. “I don’t think that’s possible, hon,” he pointed out. Devin is buried in a baby section. I didn’t even have to pause. “We can move him.”<\/p>\n
I guess it’s been on my mind, since the words sat well with me. I don’t mean move him now – he is fine, with the babies. But when I die, I want him put with me. I want his headstone and mine to be together, so that people know he was my son, so that they know how long I had to live without my baby boy. I’d like Denis to be there too (if he decides that he does indeed want to be buried). I guess I’ll need to put aside some money so that family can do all of that. Maybe, if we have extra money someday, we will move Devin sooner – but that would require purchasing the family plots, so I don’t see that happening. Not until it’s necessary.<\/p>\n
When I was pregnant with Devin I mentioned to Den briefly that we ought to have a Will drawn up. It just seemed so morbid, we never got past that brief mention. Now talking about death and planning doesn’t seem like such a strange, creepy thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
