Has it really been so very long? The memories are so fresh and *real*. Like a heavy rock that my experience of motherhood has swirled and flowed around. The weight no longer crushes me but *oh* there is still that little blank spot felt like the gap where a tooth should be, like a blind spot in my peripheral vision. How this day creeps up on me!
Today, there is no pain in grieving. A heart's longing to see my baby again some day. A surprising joy at all the gifts that little soul brought us. A certainty of hope.

Thinking of you today Sarah.
ReplyDeleteIt took me a long time to come to a place of acceptance when I experienced a similar loss, but many years on and I see reason, whether it is true or not...
Blessings and gentle hugs.
