I forgot to mention – it’s Sarah’s birthday. She was born 6 years ago at 7pm – this time on that day I was trying to ignore the faint contractions and probably cleaning the house or watching TV.
Matt accused me of loving him as a replacement for Sarah. I finally convinced him that he was completely wrong last year. I know he could see how much I loved him… I think that he wasn’t really able to compute it, though.
The situation with Sarah has been a little comforting lately, because I know that time has healed that wound. It’s a completely different kind of wound of course, but it has a similar root – losing someone who you love.
Anyway. As long as I’m uploading pictures, here is one from 6 years ago.
And here’s one from this year, which I stole from Janet’s FB page….
No Promises This Time 
You’re so brave. I know you might wish that you had not had to BE brave, had not had to be in the circumstances that have seen your bravery come forth. But. You are brave, and I am very, very proud of you.
