Seven years have passed us by
Our hearts are still filled with love
Not a day passes us by
We don’t think of our little dove
Everything reminds us of you
My little sweet angel
I miss you every moment
Sunshine and snow
Summer to spring
You would have been seven years old
Oh, how much we’ve missed you
Until we meet again…………..
We know you’re safe, we know you’re close
We know you’re watching down over us
Keep us safe, keep us strong
Help us heal and live on long
Jesus called you to his home
An Angel you became
My heart aches to have you close
Every single day
Sweet baby James, you’re missed so much!!!!
Four years ago today, my sweet
Your wings you did receive
The wind blows gently beneath your feet
As you watch over us in peace
Not one day has passed us by
That we have not wished you were here
To giggle and grow, to laugh and cry
We know in our hearts you’re near
As another year passes us by, we know that you are close and watching over
all of us. Take care of Gramma for us until we can all be together again.
Love
Mommy & Daddy
Leeanne, Gary and the Boys
XOXOXOXO
I know you are looking down, and watching over Kevin and Ryan - and for that I thank you, their guardian angel.
I wanted to dedicate this page to you, from me, our family and Mommy and Daddy.
We arrived at the hospital Monday, November 19th just after 5:00 p.m. as I had not felt James move all day. Unfortunately, after a couple of tests the doctors concluded that his heart had stopped beating. Tuesday morning they started induction.
This is a bittersweet moment for the both of us - James has given us so much. Because of James, Don and I are closer than ever because of our son. He brought peace to our hearts and joy to our souls. James is now taking care of his grandparents and uncle.
We'll see James again when it's time. Don has been my rock over the last couple of days, and for this I thank God.
We both had time with him just after he was born, and Leanne was with us for the majority of the time we spent at the hospital, so she too, had time with her brother. She was present during the course of our labour when James arrived. We held him, talked to him, took pictures with him, and cried for him during this time. The last nine months we spent getting to know James - we played, planned and looked forward to our life together.
He's now in our hearts forever.
We have his handprints, foot prints, locks of hair, and the gown and receiving blanket he wore in the hospital as token reminders of the day he was born.br> He'll remain in our hearts forever and ever and in our souls for even longer.

Don't think of him as gone away
his journey's just begun
life holds so many facets
this earth is only one
Just think of him as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years
Think how he must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away
And think of him as living
in the hearts of those he touched
for nothing loved is ever lost
and he was loved so much

I'm lost, dear Lord, I've traveled far but still I seem to roam.
Please light the way and lead me, Lord; I need to get back home.
I told Him of my burdens and of the sadness in my heart,
that from His gracious love I'd never felt so far apart.
Why did you take my child, Lord? I cannot understand!
No longer can I touch his face or hold his tiny hand.
I'm angry Lord, I'm missing him. I'm drowning in my sorrow.
Please help to heal my yesterday and face each new tomorrow.
It was then I heard his gentle voice and felt her presence near.
How I so ached to hold him as I cried another tear.
He said, "Mommy, I'm an angel now, my spirit will be free.
I'm an angel now in heaven, so please don't cry for me.
I was chosen by our Lord above and now I'm in His care.
When you need me, look inside your heart. I promise to be there.
No one can ever take away our bond with one another.
For I'll always be your precious child as you will always be my mother.
So if you cannot find your way or the road to home seems far,
Just look up to the Heavens and I'll be your guiding star."
He said, "Mommy, I'm an angel now, my spirit will be free
I'm an angel now in Heaven- no need to cry for me."
