I lost my baby, my little girl. She was only in my womb for 8 weeks, but she was the most precious thing i`ll ever have.
I miss her everyday that passes.
I`ll never get to meet my baby girl, and that hurts more than anyone could ever know.
I love you Tegan.xxx
When I was about 7 I wrote a questionnaire for the tooth fairy...just your normal every day questions, totally practical. Do you know Santa, are you made out of glitter etc.
I didnt tell my mum because I wanted it to be a surprise when she saw my completed questionnaire. left it under my pillow with my tooth.
Excitedly the next day i found my tooth and my incomplete questionnaire. I cried to my mum because i thought the tooth fairy didnt like me. My mum said she's probably just very busy and told me to put my tooth under my pillow again. The next morning my tooth was gone, replaced by a 20p and a pressed daffodil leaf and written in tiny writing it said 'To Sarah im sorry i couldnt get your tooth yesterday i was very busy, love from the tooth fairy. I was sooo happy, i kept it in my favourite cinderella book for years and years.
I opened it one day and the flower had gone, maybe fallen out when we'd moved or disintegrated i dont know, maybe another little sarah needed it more than me somewhere.
Needless to say I love my mum, aside from my partner she is my best friend. I have a little girl now, Rosie and my mum is there for me every single time i ring her in a panic saying Rosies just coughed!!
I love you mummy, i feel special that you are the tooth fairy. Itl be our little secret.
The other day my daughter and I weretalking about the 3 best presents we had ever given to each other. my daughter guessed right - a bracelet she gave me just before she went travelling, a gaelic blessing framed (it had been spoken at my father's funeral and a model aeroplane standing on a globe which she had had specially inscribed with "intrepid traveller". I gussed 2 right - a locket (inscribed with the same gaelic blessing - given just before she went travelling)and a tiffany key ring with a silver globe at one end and an aeroplane at the other. The third was a silver four leaf clover (actually "father christmas" gave her this!). What I realise now is that by far the greatest present we have given each other is love.
there is nothing as intense as a mothers love
