There’s no way to prepare for a moment like we experienced when Lydia was born. An ocean could not contain my feelings. I want to write a book someday about our first 18 mo with her, but even that could not contain it all. Shocking, riddled with fear, traumatic... sacred, transformative, and transcending. My sweet, fragile, miracle angel. If we had only known who you really are instead of all the world had taught us to believe. If we could only glimpse the light and joy you bring.
What is life but deep pain and incredible redemption. You will always be my most tender place. My forever tie to heaven.
