“Colton then planted himself directly in front of Sonja. "Mommy, I have two sisters,” Colton said. Sonja kept on working. Colton repeated himself. “Mommy, I have two sisters.” Sonja looked up from her paperwork and shook her head slightly. “No, you have your sister, Cassie, and . . . do you mean your cousin, Traci?” "No.” Colton clipped off the word adamantly. “I have two sisters. You had a baby die in your tummy, didn’t you?” “Who told you I had a baby die in my tummy?” Sonja said, her tone serious. "She did, Mommy. She said she died in your tummy."

“I knew what my wife had to be feeling. Losing that baby was the most painful event of her life. We had explained it to Cassie; she was older. But we hadn’t told Colton, judging the topic a bit beyond a four-year-old’s capacity to understand.” “It’s okay, Mommy,” he said. “She’s okay. God adopted her.”
Sonja slid off the couch and knelt down in front of Colton so that she could look him in the eyes. “Don’t you mean Jesus adopted her?” she said. “No, Mommy. His Dad did!”

“Sonja focused on Colton, and I could hear the effort it took to steady her voice. “So what did she look like?” "She looked a lot like Cassie,” Colton said. “She is just a little bit smaller, and she has dark hair.” “In heaven, this little girl ran up to me, and she wouldn’t stop hugging me,” he said in a tone that clearly indicated he didn’t enjoy all this hugging from a girl.” “Sonja’s eyes lit up and she asked, “What was her name? What was the little girl’s name?” Colton seemed to forget about all the yucky girl hugs for a moment. “She doesn’t have a name. You guys didn’t name her.” How did he know that?
“You’re right, Colton,” Sonja said. “We didn’t even know she was a she.” Then Colton said something that still rings in my ears: “Yeah, she said she just can’t wait for you and Daddy to get to heaven.”
