Lainey Landry's parents hung the stocking embroidered with her name on the mantel beside her older brothers' even though the 9-year-old is gone. She's still in the family Christmas card photo, but they added a message: "There's a brighter star in the Texas sky." And they placed two new ornaments on the tree, etched with lines from letters Lainey wrote home from Camp Mystic. "There's a lot of those firsts that are happening," Natalie Landry, 42, said as she sat in the sunroom of her Houston ranch house. Behind her, Lainey's name, scrawled in marker, was on the family chore chart, her tasks forever blank. For the Landrys, life since Lainey and 26 other girls died in the rising waters of the Guadalupe River nearly six months ago has been a succession of choices: What to preserve, what to change? What to remember? What to do with her bedroom, her siblings' grief and should they go to camp next summer?
