So May is over
Our Month of Mae
Our visit to Coombe Mill
The Baby Tilda Barn Dance
All over and gone
It has been a hard month
May will always be her month
Tilda’s month
We will always walk our mile
Visit the place where her ashes set sail
Make cakes for her birthday
And try to find our peace
By lakes, rivers and seas
This was her month
Our month for her
Our Month of Matilda Mae
As I look back on all we have done
All that has happened in our angel daughter’s name
I cannot help but feel proud
Not only of what we have done
To remember Tilda
To raise money and awareness for The Lullaby Trust
But also how we have carried on
Stayed strong as a family
It is not always easy
Missing one daughter
Growing another
And being mummy to almost four year old twins
It is not easy much of the time
But I am proud of how we are doing
Of what our family is becoming
As we continue on
Little by little
One hour of one day at a time
We carry on with love
For one another
And the most beautiful love of all
The relationship that is growing between Esther and William
What wonderful friends they are
What magical stories they weave
And awesome adventures they embark upon
Together
Together in their growth
Together in their love
Together in their grief
Together in their fun
Their learning
Their mischief
I look back at the Month Of Mae
At all that we have done
At all that love has done
And I know
I can feel it in my bones
That these two treasures
So wrapped up in one another
Are going to be okay
More than okay
They are our miracles
They are our life
Under the watchful eye of Baby Tilda
May they always love life the way they do now
May they always feel joy the way they do now
May they always laugh the way they do now
May they always trust the way they do now
May they always feel secure the way they do now
And when they cannnot
May they always have one another
May they always be loyal to one another
Protective of one another
May they always be confident in the love of the other
May they always have each other
And Baby Tilda in their hearts
