A letter to my Son Mason James
My sweet baby Mason,
I can not begin to even tell you how much Mommy and Daddy love you. Mommy wanted to write you this letter so I could try and tell you everything that's in my heart.
This will be the last day I carry you inside my belly.
It has been an adventure and an honor to carry you for these past 21 weeks. I never knew how much I could love something until I found out I was pregnant with you. I will never forget seeing your little heart beat for the first time, watching you kick your little hands and feet, feeling you flutter in my belly for the first time, finding out you were a little boy, and giving you your name.
From the very first ultra sound photo I was and still am so in love with you. I was able to see your little face and dreamed of what you would look like when I held you at your birth 9 months later. You are a perfect little miracle and it amazes me still that I was able to have you in my life even if it was for such a short while. I only hope you can feel how much I love you and want to comfort you through everything we will go through in the final hours and moments of your short, little life. I also want you to know how many people in our family love you and prayed for you and couldn't wait to meet you. Our family is not perfect or normal by any standards but it is filled with a lot of love, compassion, and strength. Your daddy is an amazing man and he would have been such a good dad to you. I only wish I could have had the chance to watch you grow into a man side by side with your wonderful father. He would be a great example to have learned from. He is a provider who is kind, strong, loving, and so patient. Above all he loves you and I more than life itself and would do anything to protect and provide for us.
You are my little miracle, angel baby and I only hope that someday when I pass on it will be your face I see greeting me on the other side. I hope you know how much you were loved and wanted on this earth but it just wasn't meant to be so.
I have asked my family and friends on the other side to open their hearts and arms and watch over you for me. Your mommy loves you more than anything is this world. Please know I will never forget you or replace you. I will carry you in my heart always!
Always and forever,
Your loving mother
