Brandon and Erika,
Today, I am thinking about you and your family with a heavy heart. I just cannot express how deeply my heart aches for you both at the loss of Talan. He was such a beautiful baby and is now an angel. I am always going to be here for you both and I will continue to pray for your healing, as your heart is so broken. II Corinthians 5:1-5, is a beautiful scripture that I too have found comfort in and I hope that it can comfort you. Bless you both and remember...You are both beautiful and gave Talan everything that a mom and dad should give their child. I know this may not comfort you today but hold tight to it.
Love you Both

Your sweet baby boy is resting in the arms of Jesus. His pain and suffering is no more. God has wiped away all tears from his eyes, and now you too can lean on Him. He will comfort you during this most difficult time. Remember God loves you, and He wants you to know He is with you.

"LITTLE ANGELS"

When God calls little children to dwell with him above,
We mortals sometimes question the wisdom of His love,
Perhaps God tires of calling the aged to His fold,
So He picks a rosebud before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them, and so He takes but a few,
To make the land in heaven more beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult, still some how we must try,
The saddest word mankind knows will always be "Goodbye".
So when a little child departs, we who are left behind must realize,
God loves children, Angels are hard to find.

God Bless You All.
