Dear Little One,
My heart is so very heavy at having to say goodbye to you. I had so many hopes and dreams for you and felt so blessed and lucky that you came to us so quickly. I had wanted another child for a very long time, but we waited many years until we were ready, and then you came to us.
It will take me a very long time to understand and accept that you couldn't stay with us, that it wasn't your future to be part of our family.
Six weeks - that's how long I have known about you - and loved you right from the very first moment. It was one of the happiest days of my my life when I saw those two pink lines.
When I saw your tiny heartbeat fluttering on the ultrasound, I thought mine would burst with love.
But, the happiness and excitement couldn't last, and you left us.
I would've been so proud to be your Mama. You would've had a great Daddy too - and the most wonderful sister that any child could wish for. There would've been a lot of love here for you.
I will never forget you.
With all my love,
Mummy.
