"Mommy is my heart still beating?"

Juliette heard the other day that a child had died. She asked a lot of questions on how and why. I began to notice her concern and realized that now she is continually checking to make sure her heart is beating. She gets a very serious look until she feels like she can feel the beat.

Yesterday at lunch I noticed her and was able to snap a shot of it. Honey, there is no heart beat on that side. That may be why you are concerned. 

While I was reading to her  later that evening I notice once again she is looking for her heartbeat.
