Dear God

Dear God,

Are you watching over Sawyer? Is he happy? I miss him so much, my heart is so empty I don't know or can't imagine how it will ever feel full again.

I want to hold my baby against my chest one more time. I want to feel his soft head against my chin. I don't want to forget his face or how he smelled. I want to remember how his tiny fingers felt in my hands. I want my body to warm his sweet head and kiss him all over just one more time.

Sawyer can you feel me wanting you? Can you feel me touching you? I feel you come to me at night and I don't ever want to let you go. I love you sweet angel. Always.

Love,

Mommy

Oh dear sweet Michelle, I've read this several times now, and I have cried my eyes out. Since we've worked writing together, you have always had a beautiful and touching way with words. This is one of your best pieces. You should put a picture of Sawyer up with this letter or favorite poem framed next to it. Again, it's so beautiful and I know Sawyer is with God and his Grandfather healthy as can be watching over you with your other angels. I love you and your family. <3 Kaylee
