"An angel in the book of life wrote down your baby's birth. She wispered as she closed the book 'Too beautiful for earth."

I hope that you find comfort in these words and know that Emma is now your precious angel. I pray that she watch over Ethan and Kelly and John. It seems difficult now, but everday does get a little easier. Remember her beauty and share her story to keep her memory alive.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Tiny Angels rest your wings
sit with me for awhile.
How I long to hold your hand,
And see your tender smile.
Tiny Angel, look at me,
I want this image clear....
That I will forget your precious face
Is my biggest fear.
Tiny Angel can you tell me,
Why you have gone away?
You weren't here for very long....
Why is it, you couldn't stay?
Tiny Angel shook his head,
"These things I do not know....
But I do know that you love me,
And that I love you so".
