Death is nothing at all, I have only slipped away into the next room. I am I, and you are you. What ever we were to each other, that we still are. Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Put no difference in your tone, wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we enjoyed together. Pray, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without effect, without the trace of a shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant, It is the same as it ever was; there is unbroken continuity, Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just round the corner. All is well.
Through my tears, I see an unadorned hand reaching out. Through my pain, I feel the soft touch of a feather. Then I hear, in the soft whisp of a whisper. A voice as I have heard before, "Cry not . . . I am here, I have always been here, and forever will be here." I reach out, and find nothing. Yet I feel the comfort of being wrapped in warmth. I feel the soft touch of a feather, And I know . . . I am wrapped in the wings of an Angel.
Go to sleep my Angel and dream Of heavenly places and heavenly faces You shall be missed, my Angel but rest in peace In this world you could easily get hurt Don't fret my Angel you are safe in God's arms He will take care of you And will always be with you Mortal dreams of riches, but my Angel You are rich for eternal life So sleep now Angel you are full of love and beauty We will all be with you soon Sweet dreams my angel When you wake up you'll know that Your dreams have come true...
Somebody is thinking of You and smiling or crying. Somebody is very proud of You. Somebody wants to be with You. Somebody wants You to be happy. Somebody thinks that You are a gift. Somebody wants to hug You. Somebody admires Your strength. Somebody wants to give You a shoulder to cry on. Somebody wants to laugh with You. Somebody praises God for Your and love. Somebody needs to know that Your love is unconditional. Somebody wants to tell You how much they care. Somebody treasures Your spirit. Somebody's glad that You're theirs. Somebody hears a song that reminds them of You. Somebody wants to be near You. Somebody misses Your presence. Somebody has faith in You. Somebody trusts You. Somebody needs Your support. Somebody needs You to have faith in them. Somebody LOVES YOU...

When the Good Lord Created Mother... / Mommy
~When the Good Lord was creating mothers He was into His 6th day ofovertime when the angelappeared and said,"You're doing a lot of fiddling around on this one."
And the Lord said, "Have you read the specification on this order?"
"She has to be completely washable but not plastic"
"Have 180 movable parts . . . all replaceable"
"Run on black coffee and leftovers"
"Have a lap that disappears when she stands up"
"A kiss that can cure anything from a broken leg to a disappointed love affair"
"And 6 pairs of hands"
The angel shook her head slowly and said, "6 pairs of hands....no way."
"It's not the hands that are causing me the problems," said the Lord, "It's the three pairs of eyes that Mothers have to have."
"That's in the standard model?" asked the angel.
The Lord nodded. "One pair that sees through closed doors when she asks 'What are you kids doing in there?' When she already knows. Another here in the back of her head that sees what she shouldn't but what she has to know, and of course the ones here in front so that she can look at a child when he goofs and say, 'I understand and I love you' without so much as uttering a word."
"Lord," said the angel touching his sleeve gently, "it's time for bed. " "No I can't," said the Lord, "I'm so close to creating something so close to myself. Already I have one that heals herself when she is sick . . . can feed a family of six on one pound of hamburger . . . and can get a 9 yr. old to stand under a shower."
The angel circled the model of a Mother very slowly. "It's too soft," she sighed.
"But tough!" said the Lord excitedly. "You cannot imagine what this Mother can do or endure."
"Can it think?"
"Not only think, but it can reason and compromise," said the Creator.
Finally, the angel bent over and ran a finger across the cheek. "There's a leak," she pronounced. "I told You, You were trying to put too much into this model."
"It's not a leak," said the Lord. "It's a tear."
"What's it for?"
"It's for joy, sadness, disappointment, pain, loneliness, and pride."
You were a mirror into my soul; a stillness amidst my storms. I loved you deeply and with all of my heart. You were a bright light that shone through my darkness; a reflection of everything precious any heart could ever hold in one lifetime. And in all of the world and all that it holds.... I Loved You!
You became a part of me and all I would ever become. I would never again be of one heart, for my heart would forever hold you in it. I saw within you beautiful dreams that you had yet to dream. We shared our Journey through the laughter in our days filled with joy ......and through the pain. The foundation of you and I held strong through our love...... We were Family! A shoulder is a gift that God gives each one of us for someone else to lean on ... And many times you leaned on mine.
So when the day came when you left me..... I grieved. I grieved from within the very depths of my soul; for that is where lives a part of you.....But it was then, I realized that you had become a part of my eternity! It was then, that I found the belief within me, that the love we shared would span a lifetime...... beyond heaven!
It was then, that I thanked God for giving me the gift of "You" in my life. It was then, that I became so thankful for the love you left behind for me to hold onto. It was then, that I realized ..... you will always be a bright light that shines through my darkness. It was then, that I realized that life is a staircase to heaven and as God reaches out to those who go before us......

The Gift Shop on the 1st Floor / Aunti Pauline
Hello little man, just had to write to you to let you know just how much I love and miss you. I hold you so close to my heart, speak to you everyday,,, sometimes all day. I just wrote Grandma Ferguson an e-mail letting her know I posted 20 more new pictures of you on your beautiful website, she misses you sooooooooooo much Romeo,,, we all do!
I have a replica of Zoom, your beanie baby turtle that sits upon my monitor and I stare at him all the time. Its just so unfair Romeo, I'm really having a hard time making sense out of all of this. I take Zoom down and hold him tight to my heart and I close my eyes and I pretend that it is you that I am holding. I never want to let him go just like you never let your Zoom go.
I can't really even begin to express how much I miss you sweetheart. Can't wait to be with you again... tomorrow would be just fine with me, but I know we'll be together again.... to hold you and to also make sure that Heaven has a rocking chair for you and me to rock and fall asleep in... remember how we would cuddle in the chair? We would hug, and I would kiss you ever so gently. I knew your tiny little arms weren't strong enough to hug back, but your heart sure did plus your eyes spoke volumes.
As you are well aware of now Romeo, Aunti has had a pacemaker to help my heart work better, which it does but the hole in my heart could never be fixed or healed by any Doctor,,,, that hole will remain permanent until I see that beautiful face of my brave little nephew one day. I'm ever so grateful for the time I got to spend with you,,, you were so beautiful Romeo that I could never imagine anything wrong with you. I know you are here with me when I cry and I know you will be with me forever.
Heaven surely must have a gift shop. When my time on earth is through and God calls my name and the angels come for me,,,,, Romeo, could you come to the 1st floor of Heaven and we'll meet in the gift shop, right next to the beautiful sandcastles and the plush turtles. I won't have a hard time recognizing you for you will be the smallest angel with the biggest pair of wings.
I said it once and I'll say it again, many people only dream of angels, but I was so blessed to have held one in my very own arms.
Have fun Romeo, run like the wind, talk up a storm, laugh hard like your crazy Aunti does, throw yourself down on the ground and laugh till all the air is gone from your lungs. Stand tall and proud, you have truly earned your spot there in the Heavens right next to our Lord God.
PSS " Dear God,,, can I please make 1 request,,, when Romeo is having a very sad day, knowing how much he misses his family just like we miss him,, could you please scoop him and Zoom up into your arms, hold them tight against your heart and sing a soft lullaby to him, cradle him gently and tell him how much he is loved and missed and how he will never ever be forgotten". Thank you Lord, thank you!
