I don't know you, but think we may be related. I am a direct descendant of Caleb Baldwin. I am so very, very sorry your precious little girl couldn't stay any longer. I pray angels will minister to your family in this time of sorrow. What a joyous reunion is taking place right now. May you have all the peace and comfort you need, each and every day until you see her again.
