.
Perspective can turn flawed circumstances into “perfect” moments.
.
My sister held my twins for the first time, but what you can’t see is the baby in her belly. Our due dates were within weeks of each other, but fair would prove our journeys much different.
.
Her 5lb baby safely in womb; my 5 lbs twins were 2.5 months into their fight for life.
.
She embracing every lb gained and each stretchmark earned. Me, no postpartum body to be seen aside from a hallow womb.
.
Me, helping host her baby shower while my babies fought alone in the NICU.
.
Her happy to be uncomfortably pregnant; me, emotionally holding on by a thread.
.
Her grateful. Me, grateful.
.
Both perfect.
