Missing my little beauty

Lately I've been thinking about how beautiful my daughter was.


She was truly a joy and a delight in the 7 brief weeks that we got to treasure her. I miss holding her so much.


Precious little eyes, nose and mouth. Eyes that seemed to hold the wisdom of the universe on the rare occasions she could keep them open long enough for us to peek inside.


I feel like she was trying to tell me something whenever I look at these photos. The first time I saw those eyes was in the moments immediately following her birth, when she looked right at me through the haze of the goop that they always put on newborns' eyes.

To this day, I wish I knew what she was trying to say.
