brother and sister....




this is the only picture of our kids, face to face, an image that amy captured at the service and it speaks volumes...precious liam, looking sweetly and adoringly at his baby sister...he would have been an AMAZING big brother. this picture speaks volumes of my mindset and heart right now. this picture both blesses me and haunts me, saddens me and brings me joy....this will be one of the most beautiful if not most treasured pictures amy grebe will ever have taken...for us at least, or maybe ever. what she captured, that moment...god-it splits my heart in two. i wonder what liam was thinking at that moment, looking at his sydney and it makes me cling to my chest and ache for what could have been....oh, our TWO precious children...our love made that, made them...i long to take liam's aching away, ian's deep pain and grief from him...i long to be a family, together.

I do not not know what to say...really..the emotion of it is so raw and yet so very sweet. Just two sweet babies..one sweet little boy and one beautiful little girl. Liam...you mind so set and feeling. Somehow the understanding of what is..I believe.
