One thing that has become really clear recently is that lindy really doesn't believe she will ever be safe and a big part of that is believing that Joseph will come back to hurt her.
faerie-girl has been spending time with lindy designing the garden. There is a big sand oval in the center for the Dragon to sleep in. Across from that is a smaller sand circle for lindy and faerie-girl to play in. On three sides it is surrounded by rosemary with pink and blue flowers. The fourth side faces into the garden and the Dragon.
On one side of the big sand oval is lindy's swingset and it has big tubs of different varieties of mint around it. The other side will have a combination fountain and shallow pond that lindy and faerie-girl can play in. Around that will be various bed of herbs like sage, basil, oregano and thyme. Behind the big sand oval, lindy wants roses. Lots of roses. She really loves roses.
When faerie-girl realized that lindy didn't really know that Joseph is dead, she went inside of Faerie's memories and brought out the memory of Joseph laying dead in the casket and brought it into the garden for lindy to see. lindy got to poke Joseph and see that he really was dead. (lindy has been to a lot of funerals and isn't afraid to see dead people.)
To help lindy see everyday that Joseph is really dead and can't hurt her again, faerie-girl and lindy went to the section of the garden where the roses are going to be planted and they dug a big hole. Then the Dragon came and closed the casket with her talons and lifted it and placed it in the hole. Then faerie-girl and lindy piled the dirt back into the hole and jumped up and down on it to make sure it was all packed in. Then the faerie-girl made a flat stone for the grave: Joseph Acree; he hurt me and now he is dead.
Tonight lindy is going to pick out the roses she wants planted in the garden. They will be planted all around the grave until they eventually cover it. When lindy needs to be reminded that Joseph is really buried there, the Dragon will fly her over so she can see the stone and read it again.
