For Florence
9:41 am A whole year, gone.
Florence's day was planned, anticipated, but the Universe once again had different ideas, and Ernest and I found ourselves readmitted to hospital on Wednesday night. Ernest had jaundice and needed phototherapy.
Ernest and I spent Florence's special day in the same hospital , a couple of floors down. The same view from the windows.
We are home now, Ernest is well.
Woody and the children went ahead with our plans, and that's ok. They brought these photos in to hospital for me.
We miss her, and so much more that is for another day...

Find myself oddly not surprised that happened. I've got a funny feeling I'm going to be frequenting Special Care again sometime next year, I just feel it.
ReplyDeleteLike you say, the universe. Huh. Go figure at it doing that :/
Much love.
Loved that first picture especially. Thinking of your precious girl.

I love the purple balloons!
ReplyDeleteIt's good to hear that Ernest is well. I remember the early days being so full of mixed emotions, especially when they coincide with a birthday, but it makes it all just a little better with a newborn to snuggle :D
