Today hits differently every year. Everything will be ok and just like any other day. Then a random moment will trigger emotions, feel like a punch in the gut and I’m right back in the hospital. Our first little girl would have been 11 today. It warms my heart that our 8 year old remembers her birthday, even though they’ve never met. ❤️
