Remembered
Dear Baby Allegra:
You were born 6 months ago today.
I held a friend's baby girl recently. She was wiggly, heavy and healthy. Unlike you. Thank you for staying in your uncomfortable body for those long, quiet weeks together.
Luckily, I held you for your first breath and your last.
Love,
Your Mom
