[quote=Anonymous]MIL passed away when DS was 3 months old. A little different because we do have some pictures of them together, but he obviously has no memory of her. And DS2 came a couple of years later, so no pictures with them. We just always talked about her. We had a small photo album with some family pictures, which we used as one of our bedtime books. We always paused on her picture and talked about her for a minute. If we were singing a song or reading a book that she had liked, we'd mention it. "Oh, your grandma Susie loved this book. She's not alive anymore, but when Daddy was a little boy she read this to him all the time!" Just very casually brought her name up frequently, so she wasn't any big mystery. [/quote]
