Dear Teddy

It’s two years since we walked into that scan 

And found out that you wouldn’t make it

What to say since then?

I miss you

We miss you

You are the sister Xander won’t ever get to meet

You are the daughter we never got to know

Yet yet

We do feel you

We do see you

Not like other families do

You’re not babbling around or taking your first steps

You’re in the wind

You’re in the stars

I see you in the Robins

In the feathers on the floor

In the dust that floats in the air on a sunny day

And 

In those moments where I do stop and stand still. 

Then then

I feel you then

Thank you for that

For making me take more moments 

to stop 

and be still


Love, 

Dad x
