I know I haven't mentioned anything about Emily previously in my blogs. I just didn't have the words I guess but she has been constantly in my thoughts and heart since my sister found out she was having another child.
I visited the family for 1 week on the 22nd of January to the 31st. It was the best week and was much needed. The main reason for the visit was to say goodbye to Emily, my sister Amanda's 4th child. Emily was 19weeks old and unfortunately I didn't get to meet my little niece.. not yet anyway.
My sister and her family had a service for Emily on Saturday the 23rd of January. It was very beautiful and emotional. Pink balloons, siblings letters, close family and friends. Faye the midwife led the service with her gentle voice, nurturing soul and breathtaking words
. It was all very moving.
The other reason for my visit was because my sisters 1st born Annabelle was starting Prep. And I wouldn't have missed that for anything! It was a very exciting moment in all our lives and nervous as well, but the lil darling did very well and I'm so so proud of her.
I also got to spend a day with my lil men Riley and Ethan my sisters 2nd and 3rd borns. We spent a day at a Reptile Park and was also very exciting but scary for all! It was a lovely moment just hanging out with the boys for the day and Robert (my lil brother) and Aimee.
Amanda I know you will read this and I just want you to know that you are my hero. People say that I am strong.. but you and unfortunately many like you have to say goodbye to something so precious that you will never get back or had the chance to really know.. and that to me is the hardest thing I believe anyone would have to go through. You have held yourself so well and i'm not sure how you have but it amazes me and I truely admire your strength and courage to move forward. I know having you in my life has been a real blessing and I couldn't imagine having a different sister. You have such a beautiful family and I love you all so so much. You know your kids are my life and would do anything for you and them.
