Still missing you bud.

Miss this little one. I remember the day she was born. Keep watching over everyone in heaven sweet angel.

It has been a year today that you left us and went to be with Jesus. Your memory is still and always will be deep within my heart. I know I will see you once again and thae thought brings joy to my heart. loving you always.

Jaida we love you we hope you have a great life in heaven. Lennon and jaylene love you miss you.

Four months have gone by already and each day the school bus goes by I get such a sinking feeling in my heart. I have read most of the entries in the guest book and I find it uplifting that such a young child could leave such a beautiful testimony of life for others. Grandma and grandpa were so blessed to have had you and I know you were equally as blessed to have had them. Rest in the arms of Jesus, little one and I am looking forward to seeing our little " Sunshine " once again...
