Prior to Liv's soccer game she wanted to go to Wendy's. When I order at the drive-thru I still think to order for Gracie. I started to cry as I thought about her eating all her chicken nuggets, half her fries, and her frosty all over her face and shirt (since the shirt was always a convenient napkin). I wanted to look behind me in the car and see her smiling at me, singing to the radio and identifying every Taylor Swift song. A wave of sadness engulfed me. We decided to include Gracie in a picnic lunch. As crazy as some people may think it is, it really comforted me and I loved having one last summer picnic with my kids before starting back to work tomorrow.
