Dearest Sonne --
Not a day passes where we do not think about you and how much you brought to our lives. This was especially true on Christmas. Oh how we longed to experience your first Christmas with you. We yearned to see your eyes light up with wonder at the twinkling lights on the tree.
And yet, despite how much we missed you, we felt such peace and joy at having known you and at having had you in our lives, even for such a short time.
You are the angel watching over us, shining your light upon us.
You are forever with us and for that we are grateful.
On Boxing Day (the day after Christmas) we went sailing on Sleeper (that's the boat your daddy races on). Morgen spent the bulk of the trip nursing and sleeping. I imagine you would have done the same which would have posed quite the challenge for me seeing as nursing you both in tandem was tricky enough on dry land. Of course, daddy and I would have figured something out. One thing is for certain, both daddy and I felt you with us that day. Oh how you would have loved sailing!
Tomorrow your daddy and I are going down to the South Coast Botani Garden where we held your memorial. We are having a memorial bench installed at the garden and tomorrow we will tour the grounds to find the perfect location.
Always know how much we love you and how much joy you brought and still bring to our lives.
xoxo...Mommy.
