Day 4: Most Treasured Items

My most treasured things are my memories of Elliot. His soft skin. Chubby legs and arms. Huge feet! The weight of his warm, heavy body on my chest. That new baby smell. How I felt the first time I saw him and the first time I held him.

My most treasured items are the tangible things that remind us of Elliot. The beautiful photos we have, his frog and anything else he touched or wore, and the molds of his feet (thanks to the awesome NICU staff). Also, the scrap book pages the NICU staff made for us.
