Cayla , I'm so sorry that I haven't written before now . I still have trouble letting it sink in that you're gone . My heart aches with wondering what you would look like and what you would like most if you were here . I know this has been a long time coming but I'm here now . I pray that your Uncle Daniel and Grandpa is there with you . I want you to make them behave themselves until I get there . Cayla you were the first great tragedy that I experienced losing you was like dying myself . I love you so much that my heart aches for you . Keep your eye out for your momma , daddy , your brothers , Lillith and Katrina . Until I join you in Heaven please know I love you with all of my heart .

My dearest daughter, How special are you? I know that answer and so does a lot of other people. You should have seen your grave on your birthday. You have so many balloons and cards it is unreal. You are touching lives even beyond the grave. There are cards and balloons from people that we don't even know. For your birthday your daddy, your boys and your momma all went to see a movie called "Happy Feet". We also had aunt Angie, Katrina, and aunt Erin with us. You would have loved the movie. It was the most adorable movie.
My precious I miss you everyday. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you..... I Love You Baby, Your Momma

How's my little flower girl? You know me and your momma would have dressed you up for the beautiful wedding she orchestrated for me and Carson. Booboo said the prayer and Eric sang for my wedding march. Momma and Daddy stood up as our witnesses, as best man and matron of honor. We had almost lost hope in finding wysteria for the occasion, but you must have whispered in Momma's ears where to find some...so you are my flower girl, even if no one saw you, we know you were there. I love you

O God, whose beloved Son did take little children into his arms and bless them: Give us grace, we beseech thee, to entrust Cayla to thy never-failing care and love, and bring us all to thy heavenly kingdom; through the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever.

My dearest David, Cathy, and boys, There aren't words to describe how much I wish I could have known your precious little one while God allowed her to bless everyone with her presence. Being such a miracle baby, I know she was loved more than anything! My heart aches whenever I think of how sad you all must have been to lose her. But, I take comfort in knowing that your family gave that amazing little girl all the love anyone could ever have hoped for. Cayla was an angel here on earth and for our Father to need her back by his side to help watch over you all and others too, I know it had to be. May you and yours feel some sense of peace everytime you think of her beautiful smile or her amazing grace. I love and miss you all!

To my special little angel, Cayla I wanted to let you know that I went to our home in torlando(the way you always said it) this weekend. I had to paint your walls. I had so many great memories of me and you in your room painting the walls. I took lots of pictures of the wall you painted. I hope you enjoyed yourself. You know that not very many parents would let their children paint on the walls. But I knew that your life was going to be short and I wanted to make sure that you had a very full life no matter how short it may be. I want you to know that I love you and I hope you enjoyed your life here with me. I tried to give you the best life ever. I wanted you to be able to say that you did more in your life than most adults did. I hope that you had a wonderful time here on earth with daddy, eric, booboo, and me. We all love you and miss you so much. Have fun in Heaven and meet me at the gates when I get there.... Love, Your Momma

My dearest friends, who I consider to be family, I could never forget the joy I shared when you announced the arrival of your baby girl. I cried tears of joy for your special blessing from Heaven. And in the time I was able to spend with you and the family, getting to know Cayla, was pure joy as well. It broke my heart to get that phone call with the news that Cayla was no longer on Earth, I cried for days. And then I realized and accepted that God must have thought she was pretty special to call her home so soon. But more than that, He had to know how special her parents, brothers and family were to have given us the time He did, to share her beauty with us. I love you and I will never forget that precious angel you shared with me.

David and Cathy,
Cayla has blessed so many lives in the short time she was here with us. Her light continues with each memory that was developed and now shared. I pray that she continues to shine in our hearts. Your little angel is back in the embrace of her Heavenly Father being loved and comforted as only He can. My prayer for you and your family is to turn to Him to be comforted, knowing that as each day passes the sorrow diminishes, her memory deepens in your heart and the joy shared will never fade away. Love and Peace to you.

It has been almost 2 months since Cayla left us. What a impact she has on me everyday.She will never fade from me. Every time I see her Grandmothers stubborness and digging her heels in to defy everyone,I know where Cayla got it from. Everytime I see a picture and she is smiling I think of her Mothers sweetness and devotion to her little girl.When I see Boo I see her. When I think of her big brother, I remember a teenager changing a diaper without any fuss and a protector of his little sister. I seen all the good care she received I think of her father working all the time to provide the things she needed and wanted. But thru all this grief my hero is her Mother. She gave birth and held her first and she had the courage to let her father hold her as she left us. Thank you Cathy for letting us share your joy and heartbreak. We Love you and your family.

To the Battle family, My prayers are with this family everyday. Sometimes there are events that take place in our lives that we do not understand, but for whatever reason; they happen. But one thing i know for sure is that God is a GOOD God and he is ALWAYS up to something GOOD. Just know that Kayla is in a much better place preparing a place for the rest of us. Just know that she is always watching and that she is with you everyday. Know that she is having a good time making new friends and most importantly she is spending quality time with her creator. AND OF GREATER IMPORTANCE, AS A REMINDER TO US ALL GRIEF IS A PROCESS THAT TAKES TIME AND THERE IS NO SET TIME AS TO WHEN ONE SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO BE OVER SOMEONE THEY LOVE IN ORDER TO BE considered "NORMAL." Kayla's spirit will live on. I am so glad that i had the opportunity to take part in Kayla's care at APH. This is a family that i will never forget. This family has a special place in my heart. Take care and be blessed.

My Dearest Little Girl, Momma is missing you everday. I just wanted you to know that I think of you everyday. Momma is so hurt with you not here. My whole body aches for your touch, My nose aches for your smell, My ears ache for your sound, My lips ache for your sweet kisses, My skin aches for your warmth. MY WHOLE BODY ACHES FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!! But momma is going to be ok because I have sooo many people here on earth that care for me. Everyone is helping me out so much. They haven't stopped talking about how special you are. You have touched so many lives in such a very short time. But the impact you have had on my life is beyond words. Baby girl, momma LOVES YOU SOOOOO MUCH.

Cayla is an angel in the truest form, here and there. We are so very blessed to have spent her birthday, Thanksgiving and Christmas in her presence. Your strength is admirable and I feel your loss deeply. Tyra felt really close to her in just the few sparing moments they caught together. If there is anything at all you need we can provide, you know the number. We love you guys. All of you. And Frank sends his love and prayers.

DEAR CATHY, DAVID & FAMILY. I AM SO SORRY THAT AS PARENTS YOU HAVE TO ENDURE THE LOSS OF A CHILD. PLEASE KNOW I AM HERE FOR YOU! THERE REALLY ARE NO WORDS THAT WILL COMFORT YOU. THERE WILL BE SPECIAL PEOPLE YOU WILL MEET THROUGHOUT THE GRIEVING PROCESS. THIS WILL BE WITH YOU THE REST OF YOUR LIFE. SOME DAYS IT IS PRECIOUS MEMORIES THAT WILL GET YOU THROUGH, A MUCH NEEDED PHONE CALL, OR THE SIMPLE CARD THAT COMES AT THE PERFECT HOUR. I HOPE YOU WILL FIND SOME COMFORT THAT CAYLA IS WITH LOVED ONES THAT HAVE GONE BEFORE HER. LOVE AUNT JEAN

Cathy and David, Evelyn and I love the both of you and we cannot accurately describe the depth or breadth of pain and sorrow that we feel for the loss of Cayla. This baby has had more than her share of medical hurdles and I can only believe that Jesus was weary of seeing her suffer and brought her home to end her pain. Losing a baby is the one thing that no one can prepare you for and God forbid that anyone else we know will have to suffer this pain again anytime soon. Look to God for answers and let your family provide the comfort and strength that is needed during this time. We love you and just know that as family, we will not fail you in your time of need.
