The picture is gorgeous–a nurturing moment! And you look sensational!
-
hey, you’re looking good! And the first thing I did was smirk as I thought that Jen will have severe eyebrow envy, and then I just read Carrie’s post and laughed even harder.
Get in front of the camera more often. It’s hard but, photoshop (and severe culling) is our friend.
-
so nice to see you! you are lovely! and I second all of the eyebrow talk!
-
what a wonderful photo to have, I wish that my daughter would fall asleep on me like that!
-
Nice to see you again gorgeous :) That’s a beautiful photo of you both.

I, too, have lived the nightmare and loss of a beautiful little girl in life…and asked many the same questions, and wondered how I could live life with such a perfect pice of me missing every single day.
What I am beginning to see, is that I DO have new eyes in which to see the world. Just as you posts here…you do things in this life, that you wouldn’t have done before.
So, I wonder, if these beautiful little ‘angels’ of ours fulfilled their life purposes, which was to give us the gift of their presence, and now allow us to live with new insights and empathy, more love and more patience…and truly treasuring every detail and moment along the way.
Life doesn’t always make sense, I have lived that full well, but I have come to believe and accept that the best is yet to come! I look forward to Heaven where our lives will be made perfect one day, and all the pain and questions and hurt will melt away. I have a feeling that Ava is anticipating your arrival…with arms open wide, a glint in her eyes, and a smile that says what your heart longs for…”that the journey has been worth it”. It’s often a thought of mine- each day brings me one day closer to my little girl…I will dance with her again someday. As you will with sweet Ava.
All my best as your journey continues to unfold.

Thats a beautiful picture!

It’s so nice to see you; what a beautiful photograph! Oh how I wish my little one would do such a thing…those precious little moments that never are recorded. I am seldom in any photograph and really need to do more of what you are doing. Thank you for inspiring us all. Oh, and did I mention you are gorgeous!?

Hi Sheye,
I wanted to introduce myself. I came across your website (your photos are gorgeous) and blog and b/c I was so moved by Ava’s story, I felt compelled to send you a little note. I recently had my first child (6 months) and lost my mother and while it’s not the loss of a child, the road has been very bittersweet. Grieving is to say the least, a very difficult, surprising, stubborn, merciless journey. You are so wise to know that it was a “blessing from Ava” that you weren’t present when she passed. I wasn’t present when my mother passed and reading your thoughts about that moment shed new light on my absense. Anyways, I wish you the best. Stay strong. And yes, you look fab!

Sheye, my best memories I have of when Ash was a baby is her falling asleep on me and watching afternoon TV, oh how I wish someone had taken a photo of me with her.
Sheye, those brows – you got it going on girl!

Gotta say I noticed the eyebrows too, gorgeous all around.
I’m a mother of two, one who is a diabetc. My biggest daily fear is losing her to her disease. I am a sibling of a lost brother, so I have witnessed how devastating losing a child is through my mother. I so sympathize with you. It’s my biggest fear in the world.
After learning of your story, I check in on you often as a reminder on how to love my children the best I can. Thank you for that. I hope it gets better each day for you. I know it’s so very hard, but you’re doing the best you can, which is incredibly strong. Ava was just beautiful and you describe in such a way I can hear her speak almost.
