Today is what I had projected to be your due date sweet baby. And I feel ungrateful but I hate that instead of nursing a newborn I'm trying hard not to panic over every little symptom each day in fear I might loose another little babe.
Thinking about you today sweet Sage. Some like to think you never existed, some like to think I was never pregnant with you. We know differently. It's okay I will carry you forever in my heart.

Grief Dare
I'm helping judge a project created by a friend. I met Heidi when I was faced with loosing you sweet Sage and she's been wonderful ever since. I am happy that she is allowing me to be apart of this new project of hers. I also feel inorder to judge i need to do it...so I am.
This is the second's weeks Dare. I had to create in any artsy way I wanted my emotions that I felt during my pregnancy with you... the moment I found I was pregnant. I choose to make this:
It's a sculpt of a woman laying on her side. Swirled with the colors represented in the flowers in the front of her. Here is my explanation of them:
Green -- The color of jealousy (I can never have a happy worry free pregnancy, Kaitlin's loss took that from me, so from the moment I am see I"m pregnant the worry sets in. I'm jealous of those who still have claim to that naivety...)
Dark Purple -- For Kaitlin, because with every pregnancy and everything I do she is apart of that
Yellow -- for Joy. I'm pregnant and most definitely happy about it
Red -- for the love I felt the moment I knew you existed
Black -- for the depressing feelings that always shadow mind worrying if I will bring home you my baby
Light Purple -- For hope, for the pure hope it all works out and we bring a baby home
Pink -- because I did get to bring a baby girl home (Emilie) so she is also always carried with me in my mind and soul.
I laid the figure on a worry stone and shrouded it in white for peace. After trying for so long It was peaceful to think we were pregnant again.
I also attempted which it worked out alright to add my first ultrasound picture to the belly area :)
Remember this was meant to represent how I felt when I first found out I was pregnant not after the ultrasounds or loss. :)

Thoughts...
I think of you often sweet baby girl. I wish I could have viewed your face just once, touched your hand, felt your warmth. But it wasn't meant to happen, it wasn't meant to be. I bet you look alot like Kaitlin and Emilie, the resemblance they have is astounding so I'm sure you are a mix of them as well. I always see green eyes for you however, so I think you have mommy's hazel ones :) Dark hair and a sweet smile.
Christmas has come and went with out you in my belly. You would be due in a few months, but instead we are trying again to conceive. You had a special place on our tree as well, and mommy found a large "s" for you to go on a little tree for next year. I think we will be retiring Kaitlin's purple tree and setting out a regular one for you and her to share :) So many thoughts for next year. I hope you can forgive me this year for not changing the norm.
I love you sweetie... I know you two are probably giving Uncle Vaughn lots of grief and love :) I'm happy your with him. Who better to care for you than the man I felt was a second father to me.

Healing
Sage in her glorious wisdom taught me that I think I suffer from Postpartum Depression. I spent three months....maybe a little more or less...but three in a free fall of emotions. First I could smile, then I was mad, then I would cry. Things that normally brought me joy I hated, etc. I very much felt like another person entirely. I've started coming back around...and it's taken to about three weeks ago for me to realise that I think I have had this same reaction after both Kaitlin's birth and Emilie's. So Sage was sent here to teach...and now I feel her name is even more perfect.

I know :)
I've had my name and photos for awhile in with some mediums waiting for some answers, some peace, something. And it finally came when I was needing it the most.
The reading told me your were a girl :) So forever you will be my baby girl Sage :) I also take great comfort in knowing your with Kaitlin and Uncle Vaughn :)
This is the picture I had on the site
