Each Holiday Season since losing my baby girl, Lily, I wonder what it would be like if she would have been born. I imagine our house being so very busy and full of life like it is with Mallory. I often wonder if Mallory would be here too or if Lily's purpose was for us to be blessed by Mallory a year later. I love my dear Lily so much and anticipate the day I can hold my baby for the first. But will Lily be a baby when I get to heaven, or will have she grown up into a beautiful woman.... I hope to not find out for many, many years. I also know that until the day we are reunited, that is she is in splendid care...
Thus, when I stare at my tree, I will always think of my sweet first child, Lily Elaine....
We do have assurance that whatever Lily's physical limitations may have been had she come to live with you, in heaven she is a perfectly formed child of God. She is very happy where she is, and on the day the two of you are reunited, you will know each other instantly!
