Quoting ♥~Trevor~♥:“ Wow, that was beautiful. I did pretty good holding back my tears until the part...."could you ask God ... [snip!] ... for a reason. It wasnt anything that you did wrong. God needed another angel. Take care, and thank you for sharing that poem.”

Thanks, that poem gets me everytime. I guess because its so personal. I didn't know if it would touch anyone the way it touched me but thanks. I am glad it touched someone else as well.

A Different Child
poem by Pandora MacMillian
People notice
There's a special glow around you.
You grow
Surrounded by love,
Never doubting you are wanted;
Only look at the pride and joy
In your mother and father's eyes.
And if sometimes
Between the smiles
There's a trace of tears,
One day
You'll understand.
You'll understand
There was once another child
A different child
Who was in their hopes and dreams.
That child will never outgrow the baby clothes
That child will never keep them up at night
In fact, that child will never be any trouble at all.
Except sometimes, in a silent moment,
When mother and father miss so much
That different child.
May hope and love wrap you warmly
And may you learn the lesson forever
How infinitely precious
How infinitely fragile
Is this life on earth.
One day, as a young man or woman
You may see another mother's tears
Another father's silent grief
Then you, and you alone
Will understand
And offer the greatest comfort.
When all hope seems lost,
You will tell them
With great compassion,
"I know how you feel.
I'm only here
Because my mother tried again."

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched but are felt in the heart. Helen Keller

I always think of my son when I hear the song by Kenney Chesney, "Who you'd be today"

There are a few songs that I listen to to help me get through the day the most important which was sang at my daughters funeral is "I Can Only Imagine" By Mercy Me its beautiful listen

God's little angels...

When God calls little children To dwell with Him above. We mortals sometimes question The wisdom of His love.

For no heartache compares with The death of one small child. Who does so much to make our world Seem wonderful and mild.

Perhaps God tires of calling The aged to His fold. So He picks a rosebud Before it can grow old.

God knows how much we need them And so He takes but few. To make the land of Heaven More beautiful to view.

Believing this is difficult Still somehow we must. The saddest word mankind knows Will always be "Goodbye."

So when a little child departs We, who are left behind. Must realize God loves children Angels are hard to find.

God will be waiting, to help you bear The pain and the sorrow of your suffering care. For no pain or suffering is ever to much To yield itself, to God's merciful touch.

He will care for and love your little angel The little child, that you loved so very much. Your child is in God's care now Your little child is in God's touch.

Oh Mother, my mother

Oh Mother, my mother
I touch your tears
invisible fingers
soothing your skin
I know you think of me so often
in the day, in the night,
in your dreams
going into an empty nursery
knowing i'll neverbe there
but I am...In your heart
in your soul, I shall always be
for you gave so unselfishly
of yourself.
Inside of you, you created
such a world for me
a world of laughter, of love
of sadness, of sorrow
every emotion people come to know
you shared with me.
And even though I may never
feel your arms around me
I felt your heart beating,
like a lullaby, singing me to sleep
and your spirit giving me a safe haven
already protecting me
nurturing me
preparing me of things to come.
But sometimes the journey
of life pulls souls apart
and yes.I had to go on
to another place.
I wish this was a decision
I could make
and I know you do too.
Know this wherever you are:
I will always remember
that yours was the first love
the first joy, the first soul
I will ever know
you gave me the courage to
go on in my journey
I hope i can do the same
for you
Your heart beat will always
call me to you.

Love, your child

This is a really beautiful song by Sinead O'Connor


All babies are born saying God's name
Over and over, 
All born singing God's name
All babies are flown from the Universe
From there they're lifted by the hands of angels
God gives them the stars to use as ladders
She hears their calls
She is mother and father
All babies are born out of great pain
Over and over
All born into great pain
All babies are crying
For no-one remembers God's name

All babies are born saying God's name
Over and over, 
All born singing God's name
All babies are flown from the Universe
From there they're lifted by the hands of angels
God gives them the stars to use as ladders
She hears their calls
She is mother and father
All babies are born out of great pain
Over and over
All born into great pain
All babies are crying
For no-one remembers God's name

There's only love
There's only love
There's only love in this world

There's only love
There's only love
There's only love in this world 

In Memory Of
Author Unknown

You never said I'm leaving
You never said goodbye
You were gone before I knew it,
And only God knew why
A million times I needed you,
A million times I cried
If love alone could have saved you,
You never would have died
In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place,
That no one could ever fill
It broke my heart to lose you,
But you didn't go alone
For part of me went with you,
The day God took you home
