Some people only dream of angels
   We were given one to hold.

A thousand word's can't
bring you back
I know because I've tried
 
and neither can a million tears
I know because I've cried.

       



If snowdrops grow in Heaven,
Please pick a bunch for me,
Place them in my Baby's arms,
And tell her, they're from me,
Tell her I love and miss her,
And when she turns to smile,
Place a kiss upon her cheek,
And hold her for a while,
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
But there's an ache within my Heart,
That will never go away.

Guess how much I love you?.

( written by Sam McBratney )

Little Nutbrown Hare,
who was going to bed, held
on tight to Big Nutbrown Hare's
very long ears.

He wanted to be sure that Big
Nutbrown Hare was listening.
"Guess how much
I love you,"he said.

"Oh, I don't think I could guess that,"
said Big Nutbrown Hare.

" This much," said Little
Nutbrown Hare, stretching out
his arms as wide as they could go.

Big Nutbrown Hare had even
longer arms. "But I love YOU
this much," he said

Hmm, that is a lot, thought
Little Nutbrown Hare.

" I love you as high as I can reach,"
said Little Nutbrown Hare.

"I love you as high as I can reach,"
said Big Nutbrown Hare.

That is quite high, thought
Little Nutbrown Hare. I wish I
had arms like that.

Then Little Nutbrown Hare
had a good idea. He tumbled
upside down and reached up
the tree trunk with his feet.

" I love you all the way to
my toes!" he said.

"And I love you all the way up
to your toes," said
Big Nutbrown Hare,
swinging him up
over his head.

" I love you as high as I can
HOP!" laughed Little
Nutbrown Hare, bouncing
up and down.

" But I love you as high as
I can hop," smiled Big
Nutbrown Hare- and he
hopped so high that his ears
touched the branches above.

That's good hopping, thought
Little Nutbrown Hare. I wish
I could hop like that.

" I love you all the way down the
lane as far as the river," cried
Little Nutbrown Hare.

" I love you across the river and
over the hills," said
Big Nutbrown Hare.

That's very far, thought
Little Nutbrown Hare.
He was almost too sleepy
to think any more.

Then he looked beyond the
thorn bushes, out into the big
dark night.Nothing could
be further than the sky.

" I love you right up to
the MOON,"he said,
and closed his eyes.

" Oh, that's far," said
Big Nutbrown Hare. "
"That is very, very far."

Big Nutbrown Hare settled
Little Nutbrown Hare into
his bed of leaves

He leaned over and kissed him
goodnight.

Then he layed down close by and
whispered with a smile,

" I love you right up to the MOON-

AND BACK!!!."

Bath Time


                     
   

 


I was given an Angel 
to cherish and love
So tiny, so perfect,
 a gift from above
When I looked at her face
 it was calmness I found
And that peace seemed to spread 
to all she was around
Her love touched my heart
 like fine threads of spun gold
And I thanked God for giving 
me this Angel to hold
But I did not know then
 that time was my foe
And too soon with a whisper
 my angel would go
My heart almost breaking 
a touch soft as lace
Seemed to wipe at the hurt 
as it coursed down my face
I still have my Angel 
to cherish and love
Those gold threads now 
shimmer from heaven above
And though I can't see her
 or cuddle her tight
I won't say goodbye,
 little Angel, Goodnight

 
  

         


We thought of you with love today
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
And days before that, too.
We think of you in silence,
We often speak your name,
Now all we have are memories,
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we'll never part.
God has you in His keeping,
We have you in our hearts.


SPECIAL ANGEL IN HEAVEN 
      
There is a special Angel in Heaven
 that is a part of me.
It is not where I wanted her
but where God wanted her to be.


She was here but just a moment
like a night time shooting star.
And though she is in Heaven
she isn't very far. 

She touched the heart of many
like only an Angel can do.
I would've held her every minute
if the end I only knew.

So I send this special message
to the Heavens up above.
Please take care of my Angel
and send her all my love.

You stayed long enough to state your claim
to the part of our hearts we give to your name,
You stayed long enough to let us all know
when the music was playing you'd put on a show,
You stayed long enough to enjoy what you had
to give wonderful memories to your mum and dad,
You stayed long enough, but i think on reflection
what we were given was a glimpse at perfection
Thank you Kayleigh, for giving perfection back
in your wonderful brothers Alex and Jack.

A little bump in her mummys tummy
for all a very happy day
we in England never saw the bump
as we live too far away
she grew and grew, Tracy too
and arrived not much bigger than a glove
but she knew it in her parents arms
that she's a special little girl 
in a big big world of love.

She had to fight it out to her very best
now thats a challenge I would say
but god interveind and said 'this is not fair'
and rescued Kayleigh on that day.
I beleive that she's in his care
and can see us from skys above
and god she does know it!! 
with a twinkle in her eyes
she's a special little girl 
in a big big world of love.

On the day God took you
I thought that I would die
I wondered where the time went?
I asked alot of whys??
With people all around me
I felt alone inside
From all their words of comfort,
I couldn't seem to hide,
I thought I might be dreaming
That I'd wake and find you here,
I thought "This can't be happening."
As I wiped another tear.
On the day that you were laid to rest
My heart broke yet again,
I wondered if the pain would end,
But mostly, I wondered when??
It's hard to be without you,
At times the days seem long,
Sometimes I just sit crying,
When there's really nothing wrong.
I wish we'd had more time,
Before your life was done.
I hope your resting peacefully,
My precious little one.

  


Sorry I didn't get to stay.
To laugh and run and play.
To be there by your side.
I'm sorry that I had to die.
God sent me down to be with you,
to make your loving heart anew.
To help you look up and see
Both God and little me. 

Mummy, I wish I could stay.
Just like I heard you pray.
But, all the angels did cry
when they told little me goodbye.

God didn't take me cause He's mad.
He didn't send me to make you sad.
But to give us both a chance to be
a love so precious .. don't you see?

Up here no trouble do I see
and the pretty angels sing to me.
The streets of gold is where I play
you'll come here too, mummy, someday.

Until the day you join me here,
I'll love you mummy, dear.
Each breeze you feel and see,
brings love and a kiss from me.

Thankyou Christine
Angel Hendryx Mummy





      

Thank you so much Christine
Angel Hendryx Mommy

We are connected, my child and I,
by an invisible cord not seen by the eye.

Its not like the cord that connects us at birth,
This cord can't be seen by any on earth.

This cord does its work right from the start,
It binds us together, attached to my heart.

I know that it's there though no one can see,
This invisible cord, from my child to me.

The strength of this cord, It's hard to describe.
It can't be destroyed, It can't be denied.

It's stronger then any cord man could create.
It withstands the test, Can hold any weight.

And though you are gone and you're not here with me.
The cord is still there, but no one can see.

It pulls at my heart, I am bruised, I am sore.
But this cord is my lifeline, as never before.

I'm thankful that God connects us this way.
A mother and child... Death can't take it away!







 

   


 
 

                                                                   














The Child God Lent

I'll lend you for a little time
a child of mine, He said.
For you to love the while she lives
and mourn for when she's dead.
It may be six or seven weeks
or twenty years or three.
But will you, 'til I call her back,
take care of her for me?

She'll bring her charm 
to gladden you,
and should her stay be brief.
You'll have her lovely memories
as a solace for your grief
I cannot promise she will stay
since all from earth return
But there are lessons
 taught down there
I want this child to learn
I've looked the world over
in my search for teachers true,
and from the throngs
 that crowd life's lane,
I have selected you.

Now will you give
 her all your love,
Nor think the labour vain,
Nor hate me when I come
to call her back again.
I fancied that I heard them say:
"Dear Lord, your will be done"
For all the joy our child shall bring
the risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter her with tenderness
we'll love her while we may,
and, for the happiness 
we've known,
forever grateful stay.

But should the 
angels call for her
much sooner than 
we've planned
We'll brave the bitter
 grief that comes
and try to understand.

                           
God sent an angel to the earth... 
The sweetest angel too
and for such a tiny little thing,
she had so much to do. 
She knew she did not have
much time upon this earth to stay, 
so she did not waste a second;
she got started right away. 
 
Her eyes were bright and sparkly,
she took in every turn. 
She did not miss a single thing,
because Angel came to learn!
God sent her here to touch the 
hearts of those he could not reach...
She taught them courage,
strength and faith,
because Angel came to teach.    

Her tiny little body
was so full of God above,
you felt it when you held her,
because Kayleigh came to love. 

In fifteen short weeks she managed
what many never will.
When she went home to Jesus,
her purpose was fulfilled.
She learned and taught,
loved and played,
she learned her lessons well.
I know he was so proud of her
when she went home to dwell. 

But when I miss her OH-SO-MUCH,
I can almost hear him say, 
please understand, her work was done...
Kayleigh did not come to stay

For my daughter Tracy,
 mummy of my beautiful princess Kayleigh
My Daughter 
You'll never really know, my dear,
Just how much you mean to me,
A mother's love, buried so deep,
That only my heart can see.
  
When I sit and really stare at you,
All I can do is grin,
Somewhere down deep inside,
I see myself within.
                          
I'd never change a thing in you,
I thank God that your so fine,
Even when your at your worst,
I'm so proud that you are mine.
  
The roads we have traveled,
were not always that good
I would take back all the pain you've felt,
Only if I could.
 
I know that I'm not perfect,
It's the best that I can do,
But everyday, I thank the lord,
For  a daughter as special as you.   
 

A heart of gold stopped beating,
two shining eyes at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove,
He only takes the best.

God knows you had to leave us,
but you did not go alone,
for part of us went with you,
the day He took you home.

To some you are forgotten,
to others just part of the past,
but to us who loved and lost you,
the memory will always last.

 My Rainbow
I saw a Rainbow yesterday,
It shone so bright and clear,
I thought for just a moment,
is that an Angel song I hear?
     
  It stood proudly there
in the heavenly skies above,
It's message very clear just now 
it was sending our Angel's love.

The sight  was quite haunting,
not grim, nor aching or sad,
it cautioned me, Be greatful...,
for the treasures that you've had. 

 felt it tell me a story,
and it's moral was to show,
the love and peace
of Heaven, in colour,
         in the beauty of the rainbow .

For you Kayleigh with love

Lots of love

They  say it's a beautiful journey.
From the old to the new
Someday I will make that journey
Which will lead me straight to you.
 And when I reach that garden
   In which there is no pain
I will put my arms around you
  And never part again.


I love & miss you so much
xxxxfrom  Nannyxxxx


If I could have a lifetime wish,
A dream that would come true,
I'd pray to God with all my heart
for yesterday and you.
A thousand words can't bring you back;
I know because I've tried.
And neither will a million tears,
I know because I've cried.
You left behind a broken heart
And happy memories too.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.
An angel In The Book of Life
Wrote down our baby's birth
And whispered as She closed The Book
"Too beautiful for Earth"


 



Our darling princess 6 years 
since you got your wings. 
We still love & miss you just the same,
that will never change. 
You & grt nanny Kit share an angel day
 so I hope you are having a great party 
with all your angel friends.
 Love you soooo much princess,
 in our hearts forever.

Gods Garden

          
God looked around his garden
and saw an empty space.
He looked down from heaven
and saw your beautiful face.

       
He put his arms around you
and wispered come to rest
His garden must be beautiful
He picks only the very best.

          
It broke our hearts to lose you,
but you did not go alone,
A part of us went with you,
the day God called you home
.
       
our thoughts are always with you,
a million times we've cried,
And if our love could have saved you,
You never would have died
