[quote=Anonymous]I would tell them before she comes to say goodbye. That gives your older one some time to process a bit before she comes over. Then the 7.5 year old can ask any questions and get some closure. The 4 year old will follow everyone else's lead, and may be upset that day, but will move on quite quickly I imagine. It's a good lesson how sometimes people we love move away. We can still love them even when we see them less. It's also ok for your kid to be unhappy about it, you don't have to fix that. Mourning a little is normal. I'd be prepared for what will happen with childcare, and let them know what the plan is.[/quote]
