To my sister,
Who always wanted to be a mom
Who has struggled to have her own baby
Who has spent countless hours and dollars on tests and procedures
Who has smiled through the cringe-worthy prodding of well-meaning family members
Who has sweetly cared for others’ babies without complaint
Thank you.
Thank you for loving my daughter like your own.
Thank you for showing happiness despite your own heartache.
Thank you for the countless gifts and surprises for me and my child.
Thank you for not hiding away.
Thank you for helping me see the joy in even the hard parts of parenting.
Thank you for being there during my pregnancy and childbirth.
Thank you for being so selfless.
This is so sweet!
