Aidan's Ultrasound image from 29 October 2004

Sweet, Sweet little Man,
Where has 7 years and eight months gone?  I love you and think of you often.

Your sister Kirsten has her birthday in little over a weeks time.  She will be 6 years old.

She knows of you and misses having a big brother. She thinks the two of you would have had great times playing together.

Did I tell you I had a memorial river stone carved with your full name and birth date?  It resides in my garden amongst the herbs.

Also have I told you that I am a better person for having you in my life for that short time.

Living the grief, grappling with loosing you and all my hopes for you; created a stronger more sensitive yeilding person.  A better person most definitely, but I am still working and will always work on being the best person I can possibly be.

The best mother to Aidan and Kirsten, someone that you both can be proud of.

Love you my dear dear boy. Your Mama.
