Big Sister Love

I was cleaning up Abby’s room today, and I came across this letter she wrote to Hannah.

Apparently, she writes to Hannah quite often.  I can tell by her conversations with me and the other letters she has written that she is still incredibly heartbroken.  But like me, she puts up a brave face.

Last night, when she saw me tearing up after seeing a picture I found of me and Hannah a few weeks before she passed, she broke down too.  Tears were just pouring out of her, and she really, really misses her little sister.

I told her that it is okay that we cry.  Even if we cry next week, next year, or 10 years from now.

The hardest part of the conversation was when Abby said something that I feel so strongly as well but never mentioned to her… “I hate that I will never get to see Hannah again.”

Yeah, queue my tears…
