This weekend we have to pack up Andrew's room. I don't want to. I don't want to put his stuff in a box knowing that it never needs to come back out of that box again. I'm sure I'll unpack his stuff at our new place, but I know it will just be to make me feel better, not because it needs to be unpacked.
Oh yeah, and we need to pack up the rest of our house too. Movers are coming on Monday.
I lost my son in July and packing up the things we had prepared for his arrival was so hard for me. My heart aches for your loss and I know that hurt all too well. Trying to figure out what the "right thing" to do is is one of the hardest things these day. if you want to unpack his things and give him his space in your new house, you absolutely should! He may not be with you in body, but he is your son non the less and he is alive in your heart. I am so afraid people will forget about Christian even though Ithink of him ever day all the time. I wish you healing in your heart!
