My dearest Ava,
You were born 20 weeks too soon. The 20 weeks that you grew inside me wasn't enough time. We grew and bonded. I loved you so much. I loved feeling you kick and watching your dad poke around my belly in order to feel you kick. You gave me such a cute belly. But alas, you weren't meant to endure this life on earth. At times it seems so unfair that you returned to heaven so suddenly. It makes me wonder what life would be like with you here. You would be 2 now...walking, talking and definitely causing havoc. Would you look like Brad or Ross? I guess I imagine you looking more like Brad. We miss you so much! I hope you look down on us all the time. I constantly think of you. Although, a lot of people think you are playing with other little babies up there, I guess I just imagine you in the arms of your Great Grandma Maureen. She was truly one of the greatest women I have ever known. We can't wait to see you again. Although we will have eternity together, these next 60 years will feel like eternity without you. I know you are probably up there telling me to not worry or be sad about you, but I just can't help it. Those 20 weeks I had you were amazing. I am looking forward to the rest!
Love,
Mom

Tender. And so thankful for eternity for you to have all of your family.
I'm certain that Mom IS holding and taking wonderful care of Ava
until you're together as a forever
family. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings. I know that
little Ava loves you very much and misses being with you, too!
I am sure she is watching over you guys. I think about things like that too sometimes. I just have to have faith in the plan that Heavenly Father has for e know that this is how it is supposed to be. I hope that you feel her around you and it takes some of the sadness away.
Wonderful thoughts honey. It's comforting to know that we will see here again someday.
