Birthdays

Please God, make them remember that
Today is a special, birthday.
Make them understand that
The memories don't go away.
Bless them, with ears to hear and hearts
that care. Enable them to listen while I share.
Shelter them that they may never know my pain.
Help them to help me know that my
child's life was not in vain.
Help them to remember, Lord that I wish
That my child was here
So we could still celebrate.
To understand that I still
Feel the nearness of my child.
To see beyond my smile and the
Words. "I'm okay."
Please God, just let one remember today
Is a special birthday!

Happy Birthday Angel Baby

Dear Monique,

Hello my precious Angel how I miss you. I can't believe you would already be 3 years old. It seems like yesterday you were born. But yet it is your 3rd birthday and the second one spent in Heaven. Far away from my arms but never far from heart or thoughts. It has been over a year since you left us and returned Home but the pain and heartache is greater than ever. I long to have you here with me to watch you blow out your candles on your cake. Or watch you open your presents with delight that only a child can have. Daddy and I visited your gravesite today and brought your birthday balloons and teddy bears. The grief of leaving those things on your headstone instead of your chubby hands is unbearable. Will the heartache ever ease my Monique? Will I ever stop passing your room and glancing it with hope that your there? Until the day I see you again I will hold your memory in my heart and in my mind. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MONIQUE !!!!!!
