Sweet little Declan, every morning i go into my kitchen and see your smiling face on my fridge. I can not begin to describe the way you've touched my heart. I only wish i could have met you in person. We love you and miss you.

a little ray of sunshine came out to play, he stayed just long enough for us to love, but our Heavenly Father needed him to be by His side, no more pain, no more needles, this little ray of our sunshine now is beaming in the throneroom of our KING. May the Lord's loving arms embrace you all, may the Lord lift all your heartache away, and may you look upon his brief time here as a peek into what heaven will be like as his smile was definantly heaven sent.

I unfortunately did not know you personally, however as I followed your journey I felt I was there from day one. You have such an infectious smile that brightened everyones day. My heart as well as my familys heart breaks as you had to leave this world so early but you are now pain free and whole once again watching over your family. You are loved and missed by many.

No words can ever completely express the sentiment one feels in this situation, nor can they completely heal anyone from such a loss. But I will tell you what's in my heart.
Though you don't know me, I have been not just touched but CHANGED by your sweet little boy so I wanted to share my heart with you.
The hardest lesson a mother and father can learn first hand is that these precious babies are not really ours forever. God blesses us with their presence, gives us the gift and great honor of being their parents, but they are ultimately here for His purposes. What an amazing light Declan has been for this world and God certainly has used him in such an awesome way! A bitter sweet reminder of God's love and sacrifice for us, but amazing nonetheless. Prayers to this family for strength and peace. May all the warmth and joy of God's love be poured on you daily as you mourn the loss of this angel, as you piece your hearts back together, and as you let Him heal you over time. Declan will be watching over you with those beautiful eyes of wisdom and love. You are truly blessed to be his family.
