Dear Olivia,
We have come to your three month angelversary. This means you have been gone as long as we knew about you, and from now on, you will have been gone longer than we knew you were with us.
Ella still talks about you often. Out of the blue she will ask where you are. Where heaven is. Whether you wear clothes in heaven. Who you are with. She asks to kiss you in my necklace. You have made such an impact on her. I can also count on Ella to remind me that I have three daughters and she has two sisters. She now also talks about another baby someday but it's clear she'll never forget about you.
This month also brought the end of 2014. New Year’s was harder than I expected it to be. It marked the end of your year. The year you were conceived. The year we watched you grow. The year we happily announced your upcoming arrival. The year we found out and shared that you would be our third daughter. The year we lost you. The year we held you.
What hasn’t ended with your year is our love for you. That will live on for the rest of our lives.
Love,
Mommy
