Dear Cora: Mommy needs to cry.

Dear Cora,

I'm writing to you because I really need a good cry. And, I often get emotional when I write to you or about you.

The oddest feeling the past few days. The tears have been just about to fall, hidden not far from the surface, but won't come. How I feel like I just need a good cry.

My eyes start to moisten when I write this. I just miss you. I miss holding you. I miss listening to you cry. I miss talking to you.

The five days that you lived where my whole life all wrapped up. It's like you were here all along.

I miss your determined little hands. I was so surprised at how strong they were.

I miss the silly little nicknames I had for you.

I miss being completely and totally happy. Full. Of love.

I miss watching you sleep, so peaceful. I miss you.

Tears do start to fall, but not the huge release I need.

Maybe I'm out of tears for now.

Love,
Mom
