If she were born on time, she would have been 6 months old. It is difficult not to picture her as a 6 month old. If she were like her sister, she would be moving and almost crawling--small but mighty. If she were like her brother, she would just now be sleeping through the night and would be getting over all that crying all the time!
But I know better--she would have just been Norah. And it is hard to know that we are missing every part of what our daughter would be. All those questions about what she would look like, what she would be doing, how she would be sleeping....that is what I am missing. I am left with this empty spot in my heart....it was a gaping hole, and it is slowly but surely getting smaller, but I still miss her.
Apparently my kids miss her too. Maggie didn't hesitate to add Norah to our family list on her homework for school.
