June 5th, 2008.... Happy Birthday to our baby...
Though I never held you in my arms, never got to touch your little face or hold your little hand, though I never got to smile at your little piggies or feel the joy of your first cry, I didn't feel you kick in my belly or watch you grow in the ultrasounds, I never gave you a "proper" name or even your first bath, and I will never feel the joy of taking you home in my arms or the stress of our first night alone, I may never change your diapers or help you to walk, never teach you to ride a bike or hold you after you take your first fall, I will never get to help you through school or your first heartache after your first crush, I will never watch you graduate kindergarten or even high school, never see you fall in love, and though I'll never look into your eyes and get to say these sweet words...... I will always love you. I thank God for allowing me to carry you, and I wish I could have kept you. I know you're safe and happy, surrounded by God's peace and love. I rest assured that you will spend your Birthday with family and that somehow you know I will always hold you in my heart... a mother's love knows no bounds. You touched my life in a way no one has....Happy Birthday Peanut! Mommy loves you.....forty nerdy.

Happy Birthday Peanut!
You know daddy will always love you too!!!
No words here....I love you both.
Happy Birthday Peanut! You are dearly loved and incredibly missed.
Little peanut is truly missed but was loved beyond measure while with us. Someday we will love another little one....but will never forget Peanut. You are also right about a mother's love and while I know the bond between mother and child is very strong, I also know from watching you and dad, that a father loves just as deeply. Your Peanut was blessed with that same love. Love to you both.
Happy Birthday Peanut!
I love this song & I think you will too (if you haven't already heard it)
Glory Baby- by Watermark
Glory baby you slipped away as fast as we could say baby…baby..
You were growing, what happened dear?
You disappeared on us baby…baby..
Heaven will hold you before we do
Heaven will keep you safe until we’re home with you…
Until we’re home with you…
Miss you everyday
Miss you in every way
But we know there’s a
day when we will hold you
We will hold you
You’ll kiss our tears away
When we’re home to stay
Can’t wait for the day when we will see you
We will see you
But baby let sweet Jesus hold you
‘till mom and dad can hold you…
You’ll just have heaven before we do
You’ll just have heaven before we do
Sweet little babies, it’s hard to
understand it ‘cause we’re hurting
We are hurting
But there is healing
And we know we’re stronger people through the growing
And in knowing-
That all things work together for our good
And God works His purposes just like He said He would…
Just like He said He would…
I can’t imagine heaven’s lullabies
and what they must sound like
But I will rest in knowing, heaven is your home
And it’s all you’ll ever know…all you’ll ever know…
We love you all- forty nerdy!
Google it...so you can actually hear it sung
Beautiful song.....pretty much says it all.
Love & miss you guys! :)
