it's been a while...

Dear Lilly Bean,
 It's been a long time...huh? Sometimes, actually...most times... I just don't know what to say. I'm at a loss for what I should be saying, what I should be doing...how I should be acting in all that's going on in our lives.
 In just a few short weeks, your baby brother's and baby sister should be here with us. It's hard to believe that you've been gone long enough for me & daddy to figh infertility, to become pregnant, and to bring three more little lives into this world.
 They will know about you, Lilly. I'll talk about you all the time...they will know the story. And they will be aware of the footprints you left on all of our hearts.
 And you know... no matter what people say, these triplets are not replacement babies. Our hearts still ache for you, little girl. You'll never be replaced...you'll never be forgotten. You'll always be in my heart, and on my mind. How could we ever forget the little girl that made such big changes in our lives?
 I miss you, Baby. More than I ever thought possible...

Love,
 Mommy
