Hello my darling cathpip
I wanted to post to you for days but couldn't find the right words, I doubt that there will ever be the right words to say to you, regardless of how long we've known each other.
To me, and Nemo too I guess, Pips was a real force of nature, and having the fortune to share the life she had here, in this world, watching her make her 'mark' on all things she did was truly wonderful.
She was gentle, kind hearted, loving but also soon learned, much to Aubrey's misfortune, that she wasn't just his little sister to push around! 
If he had something, she had to have it too....
I have such lovely memories of them both in the garden, often not wearing much else but sun cream ( and ice-cream) on glorious days, as they played with tubs or containers of water, the hose, water pistols, or in the sandpit, always with summery treats that inevitably melted onto/into various surfaces, including the dogs!
Oh cath you've all been through so much, but most of all, as a mother, it's YOU who has had to carry on, be the glue and hold it all together and keep going. It's as if you've simply not being 'allowed' that day where the world just stops so that you can too, so you can just sit, and just be you, a grieving mummy, Pippa's mummy. Think of nothing and no-one else, just for once.
Of course it's never said out loud but as mothers, with other children (and I'm also drawing from my own experience of personal loss here, I most certainly don't want to take the immense feeling of grief away from any of you who has only ever lost one child and had no others to care for IYKWIM?) you're expected to carry on, changing nappies, feeding a newborn in your case.... I honestly believe in my heart, that without your darling boys, things would've been very different.
It's never a competition - who is grieving the most, the hardest, the deepest or for the longest but you really have been immensely brave and I'm honoured, absolutely, honoured to be your friend.

I shall be wearing red lips just for Pips tomorrow.
Goodnight gorgeous, I'll call you. I hope we can talk but understand if you can't face it.... We love you all so much.
