Our Loss, His Gain

Please keep Johnny's family in your prayers over the next few days. His Granny-Ms. Yvonne O'Kelley passed away at midnight last night. It was pretty sudden and although she had been in ICU for a week, none of us were really ready to say goodbye to her here on earth. Donna-Johnny's mom-said, and we all completely agree-that if there were ever a person going to heaven it was her! So we know that we will be able to see her again one day.
Me, especially, could use prayers on how to handle this with Turner. He knows that she is "gone" and in heaven with Jesus, but just that one sentence alone is so much for a 4 year old to even grasp. Where's Jesus, where's heaven and why is she gone? she was just here the other day? He's so smart for a four year old that its sometimes hard to remember that he is really only four. I just dont want him to feel like we are keeping something from him but also don't want to throw too much on him. So a peaceful balance is what i'm trying to find and for each and every child I know it will be different.
So the receiving of friends starts monday at 11am and the funeral is immediately following all at Kyker (spelling?). Which poses the childcare problem with Turner and Molly but we are working on that too.
Thank you again for your thoughts and prayers, I'm sure those of you who know this family remember how close they were. Johnny's parents built her house right next door to theirs on Gallaher with the two ponds they share. We know she is in such a better place and is not suffering anymore. We know that no one can live forever but still want her here with us. Again, our loss but his gain and we do all know and talked tonight about how she's already looking over us.
