What might have been

Today is the due date of my second pregnancy. I find myself contemplating what I might have been doing today. Would I be in the hospital agonizingly trying to deliver my child? Would I be out on a normal day, praying for labor to begin? Would I be lying in a hospital bed cuddling my new born son or daughter? Or would I be at home already caring for my child?

So to my baby I have to say that I'm sorry. So sorry that my body couldn't take it. That I couldn't have kept you long enough to tell you "Happy Birthday!" All I can do is sleep. And dream about what might have been.

My dear, sweet Miss W.

I know how difficult days like this are. I wish I could take your pain away.

I'm sorry sweetie, so very sorry.

My due date is coming up soon and I am not looking forward to experiencing that pain first-hand.

Thinking of you.

xxoo,
Emily
