I know, and it was such a good b'day. In fact, Ben and I were on the phone when it happened. They live in Jackson, MS which is about 8-10 hours from here. John hopefully is going with me. My brother is flying us down. I'll probably go on Thursday for a Friday funeral, but I don't know what all extra will be involved with a suicide. He and my SIL are the kids' godparents, and they're the ones taking us to the beach for the kids' birthday.
My mom is going down tomorrow early to help my brother. Unfortunately my Dad is in Puerto Rico on business and can't get back. I hope John can go. Otherwise it will just be me and my mom for my brother (he's my only sibling).
Thanks for the prayers. My head is reeling.
