I knew they were there. But I felt like it was just us. I sat up by her head on her right side, laid my head down next to hers, held her cold hand, tucked her blankie up next to her face, closed my eyes and sang her "Baby Beluga" over and over again. It was all I could do for her. So thats what I did. While the craziness swirled around us, I did my best to make sure my baby girl knew I was there. I hope she knew I was there, because thats all I could do for her.
Today we went to the cemetery and made Ellie her first snowman. Because that's all we can do for her.
It even has a goofy smile like our peanut |
Ellie's snowman next to her grave. We hung bells and some other things in the tree for her. |

That snowman is a beautiful monument to a beautiful girl.
Just wanted to say that you are still in our hearts and minds. You are so strong mama, even if you don't feel like you are sometimes.
Your beautiful Ellie has touched me deeply in my soul and I've only known her for 4 days. Although I don't know you, I would give anything for you to hold your daughter again. Ellie may seem far away, but she really is only a breath away. Your daughter will never be forgotten by her loving family- nor by me.
