AVA, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I MISS YOU SOO MUCH. I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER...

GRANDPA

A year ago, on February 20th, the world became a better place. The deep pain caused by Nina's death just 2 weeks earlier was eased. The normal cycle of life was going on. The bright eyes of Ava Paige Backert were open.

And for 5 months, life was wonderful for all of us who had the opportunity to hold this beautiful child, to see her smile, to hear her laugh. To feel her love.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING A MONTH NOW TO TO WRITE SOMETHING WITHOUT CRYING. I FIND IMPOSSIBLE. I MISS MY LITTLE AVA MAY BROWN WITH ALL MY HEART. I'M SO MAD AT GOD, THAT I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO FOR ANSWERS. I KNOW THAT HE NEEDS LITTLE ANGELS,BUT WHY DID HE HAVE TO TAKE MINE? WHO DO I PRAY TO IF I'M MAD AT HIM? THE DAYS DAYS GO BY AND THE EMPTINESS IS STILL SO DEEP. PEOPLE SAY THAT IT TAKES A LITTLE TIME. I STILL DON'T THINK THAT'S TRUE....I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THIS!!!I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT GOD WILL...

TO MY LITTLE MISS AVA,
I WAS SO BLESSED TO HAVE YOU FOR THE FIVE MOST WONDERFUL MONTHS OF MY LIFE. I WILL NEVER FORGET YOUR BEAUTIFUL AND HAPPY SMILE. THE MEMORY OF IT WILL ALWAYS BRING A SMILE TO MY FACE EVERYDAY FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. I WILL MISS AND LOVE YOUR ALWAYS.......

LOVE GRANDMA

Hi stinkerbell,
I can't believe you have been an Angel for a month now. I miss you so much. I think about you all the time. I wish I could hold you & see those gorgeous eyes & that huge smile again. Just a year ago everyone was finding out that you were on your way & now.....
Ava, we are all going crazy without you, please help us thru this. We're numb, can't breathe and the sadness is so thick that no one is the same anymore. We all love & need you so much. People still tell...

Melissa and Mike,
Ava was a gift from God for you and all who love you. He took her back and our hearts broke in pain. But we know deep in our hearts that she is okay and is looking out for you guys. I was very lucky to have held her the times I did, I thank God for giving me the chance to have known her and loved her. We will miss her and love her for ever.
The pain will get easier.
Ava you are missed by your whole family.

Dear Ava Paige,
Everyone who was near you will never forget your beautiful smiling face. You have changed everyone you have come in contact with for the better. I know you are happy in heaven, but we deeply miss you down here.
Love,
Regina, Joe, Reilly, and Jack
