Out of all the mothers that God could have chosen for William, he chose you.

Why ??

Because he KNEW that out of all the mothers in the world, you were the best for William, no one else would do.

Much love.

[…] Three Ring Circus wrote an interesting post today on Dear William,Here’s a quick excerptNot as much as I would have had you stayed here with us but alot and I think about whether you would like books or TV or if you would adore the outside, like Noah d oes. Would you love music and sing? That seems to be another family trait…. […]

Oh tiff.. We all have 20/20 hindsight… sometimes the things that we regret most are the things that we actually were not physically capable of at the time…

If only.. If only.. If only..

I think that those two words should be banned..

The tears that I am shedding now.. are tears for all the If onlys..

the smile that I have now is for you… for me.. for everyone..

((((((hugs)))))))

I have never experienced a loss of this magnitude and yet as a mother I understand. Not fully, but a teeny bit. My heart swells with empathy and love for you and your family.

We know not why and yet we have to soldier on. Peace sweet momma. This New England momma is sending her love!

*HUG* Let him down? You never. Mourn him? Yes. Blame yourself? You shouldn’t.
*HUG* There are seven other little lives which depend on you. *HUG* It’s always easy to look back and say ‘would have, should have, could have’. No one could have loved him more. That’s what’s important. No one could have mourned him more completely. That also is important. You need to stop beating yourself up. That is even more important. *HUG*

Tiff that was beautiful - I can feel William would have been just as cute as Noah , a lovable munchin, full of rough and tumble too.
I know where has 4 years gone…I feel it too. In the blink of an eye.

You never let him down - William only knew your love - please put down the stick you have beaten yourself up enough.

We do not need a special day to bring
you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you
are very hard to find.
Each morning when we awake we
know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache
as we try to carry on.
Our hearts still ache with sadness
and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
no one will ever know.
Our thoughts are always with you,
your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly;
in death we love you still.

Yes , thank God for Noah and Ivy - I think I know what you mean about them piecing your heart back together … but not filling the hole.
Love & Hugs
Trish

What a beautiful letter for your son, I’m sure he loved it. I also believe that he is watching over you all, and knows how dearly you love him.

Hugs for you Tiff, you’re a terrific mum xoxo

Happy birthday sweet baby. That was a beautiful beautiful letter Tiff. You are an inspiration. As for you feeling that you have let William down, William was one of the most loved babies I have ever read about. Your love for him was very obvious. He knows this. He felt your love in the womb and in his precious life. Im sure that instead of feeling like you let him down in any way, he feels your huge love for him. XOXO
