Dear Baby Allegra:
You've been gone 5 weeks.
Your adoring siblings always begged and argued to be the next person to hold you. For most of your life, I was that lucky person. Do you remember the feel of my arms like I remember the feel of yours?
Love,
Your Mom
I almost every day when I switch on the computer go and have a look at your blog; and I am so glad that you keep writing about your feelings; you are an inspiration for all of us how you are handling with the whole situation. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteDitto. So glad you are still blogging. Look at those 5 sweet little faces!!
ReplyDeleteThinking of each of them and you two, too.
I remember how it felt to hold Allegra in my arms. She was so weightless, sometimes all I could feel was the inhale and exhale of her breath. I think I will always remember her tiny round head in my palm and her long closed fingers that I would wrap around my own. I also loved to put her soft downy cheek up against my face. Holding her was heavenly.
