he will never cry again,he will not be cheated of anything, he will never feel any more pain,where he is right now is where we all want to be(heaven) and although it would be good to have him just one more day....im sure there is so much more things you would want to say, but all you have to do is say them anyway, say them until it makes you feel better.you will never understand why he had to go but be happy and think of it as a privilege that he chose you to be his mom!
in everything give thanks!

Nicholas was a beautiful little boy, so full of life and love. I regret that I didn't get to spend as much time with him as I would have liked, but every second I did get to spend with him was a gift I'll always cherish. The echoes of his laughter will ring in my heart forever.

Nicholas,
I miss you so much baby boy... Jacob still asks for you every day. You were such a good son and big brother. I love you so much. I just wish this was all just a dream.. I hope that Papa is in heaven taking care of you and making you laugh. I would give anything to hear that laugh again. Just know that Mommy and Jacob will never forget you and we will carry you in our hearts forever. I hope that you are looking over your brother for me. He loves you and misses you so much. I know that you will be his guardian angel now. That must have been your purpose all along. I am just glad that I was able to have you for as long as I did. I am truly blessed to be your mother. I love you with all my heart baby boy.
Love,
Mommy

Nicholas was a joy to have in my room this year. He was always full of life and eager to learn. His smile could melt your heart. He had a personality that was so full of life. I will miss him dearly.

Kendall was in Nicholas' class at school. She says that he was a good friend to her. She also knows that Nicholas is with Jesus now. There's no better place to be! Our prayers are with your family. May the Lord bring you that peace that only He can give. The peace that passes all understanding.
In His Love, The Odoms

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
