Hi Sunshine!
ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about you a lot today and wondering what you're doing in Heaven - probably picking lots of flowers for Mother's Day! I sure do miss you. I have pictures on my desk at work of you nestled in the little bed after you were born, wearing your pink hat. I have pictures of me holding you and you sitting all by yourself in your Bumbo seat. Such a big girl!
Wyatt says your name a lot and says "That's my sister" when he sees your picture. It makes me smile to know that you hand-selected him for us. He's going to take your picture to school for show and tell day. It's hard for him to understand where you are - how you were here before him and why you're not here now. It's hard for me to understand sometimes too. I know you're with God and that you're safe, and that I'll see you again. It just seems like a long time to wait ...
In the meantime, I'll continue to tell you stories about my day and talk to you when I'm sad ... and when the breeze blows a certain way or a butterfly lands on my arm, I'll know it's you - telling me about your day.
I love you baby girl - XOXO
Mommy
