Now we're just waiting for the big one, only a few weeks away.
He gets me out of bed each day.
He gives me reason to go on.
He fills my days with HOPE when I thought all hope was lost.
I don't have much to say any more, as I am so busy being simply busy with him, while never forgetting her. My Hope.
As unlucky as I have been, I am a very lucky girl and I don't ever lose sight of that.
Wish I had more words and ways I could spin the bittersweetness of it all.
Love you, Angus. Thank you, Angus. Love you, Hope. Miss you, Hope.

He is SUCH a beaut, Sal. Can't believe that he's almost 1. Do you remember those last pregnant weeks? That time went sooooo slowly! I think we chatted most days and it was an extremely tough time for you. And this year has gone quick, no? How does this happen?
ReplyDeleteI miss Hope too, sweetie. xx
I was sorting through some things today and came across your birth announcement. I can't believe a year has gone so fast. I never tire of seeing pictures of Angus. There are some that make me say he's all Simon and some that make me say he's all Sally, but of course he's really all just him. Honoring the beauty and delight of your boy and the missing of your girl and the big bittersweet of all that with you.
ReplyDeleteFantastic, beautiful pictures, Angus is lovely!
ReplyDeleteRemembering Hope with you.
He is just totally, totally gorgeous. I can't believe he's about to be one, I remember how thrilled I was to hear he was here safe and well.
ReplyDeleteSally, he is getting so big and he is so cute. Your have a beautiful family.
ReplyDeleteoh he's gorgeous! I wish you could give the same countdown for Hope. xxxh
ReplyDeleteHe is so very beautiful! I can't believe he is almost 1 year old. It seems like just yesterday that I was reading about your pregnancy and hoping for a happy ending.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your handsome boy. Missing Hope with you and sending love...
What a love! Oh my is he CUTE! Glad he is in your life to make you laugh and smile.
ReplyDeleteMissing Hope with you, too.
These pics just made my day (the other day, when you posted them...I'm a little behind on my commenting).
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful boy!
You do make beautiful children.
ReplyDeleteYou must share pictures more often! I wish I could travel across the miles and come squeeze that little man ...
ReplyDeleteIt is crazy how intertwined the joy and the pain really can be, isn't it?
He is such a gorgeous baby, Sally.
ReplyDeleteI wish his big sister was here too. My heart aches for you. xo
