First Letter to Katelyn
On August 14, 2008, Scott and I drove to the hospital so that I could deliver Katelyn, knowing that she would be born without life. I don’t remember much of the details, but I do remember asking Scott for a piece of paper as soon as they took us to a room. These were my first words to Katelyn. She was already in Heaven, but I know she heard them.
Dear Katelyn Grace,
Your Daddy and I love you very much. We wish we could have met you, but I guess God had other plans. You must be so extra special that He wanted you home with Him.
We miss you so much even though we have never met you. I know you would have been Daddy’s little girl and he wanted that more than anything else in the world.
I know your Daddy and I will get to meet you someday, but it breaks our hearts that it can’t be right now. I want you to know that your Daddy and I love each other very much and we wanted to share that love with you.
Gracie, you will always be in our hearts. I feel like part of my soul has been ripped out because I will no longer feel you in my belly.
We miss you already and will think of you every time we look towards Heaven.
We Love You,
Mommy and Daddy
