Sweet baby girl,
It’s absolutely unbelievable to think that you would be 11
months old today my Kate. That is only one month away from being ONE YEAR
old. It breaks me and it also raises
up in me a need to celebrate. To
celebrate and remember the day we met you. A desire to celebrate that we have made it this far, when in
the early days tomorrow seemed impossible to reach. And my heart
longs to remember the faithfulness of God to us in our deepest of pain over the
last year. All of this a culmination
of my love for you sweet baby. My
love for you has kept me going. It’s
kept me grieving and kept me hoping. My tears are a way I feel near to you again. My hoping reminds me of the perfect home you enjoy, and that one day we will share the wonders of that place.
There is a song called "Glory Baby" that has comforted me over the months. A friend wrote out the lyrics and gave them to me the day we said goodbye to you. Yesterday a sweet friend sent this picture as she was remembering you ..... remembering us. And they are perfect words for you today sweet girl.
Yes, do this Kate Ryan. Run to sweet Jesus and let him hold you. Let his arms hold you .... His perfect love hold you, until we can.
I love you to the moon and back,
Mommy
