One Year Today

One year today. One year since you slipped away from my body and left your daddy and me broken hearted. My heart has begun to heal, but I am forever changed.

I still think of you often, several times every day. I think of how old you would be now, how you would be smiling and laughing and learning to roll over.

I think of how different our lives would be if that awful day hadn't happened. I'm a different person than the person I was a year ago. I hope that I am better and stronger for having been your mother. Some days I'm not sure, but most days, I think I am, and every day I am grateful to have carried you inside me.

I miss you so much my little baby. And I long for the day when I can hold you in my arms. But until then, I hope you know you are forever in our hearts.

We celebrated you today. We all went out to eat as a family like it was your birthday. Your brothers ate corn on the cob and drank lemonade. They loved it. I know they love you too.

We love you Cecily!



Another baby loss mommy made this for me to celebrate our little angel. Thank you Dana!!
