Our Angel

My friend sent me this poem and it made me cry so hard. I know that this is how Sienna feels right now...


When tomorrow starts without me and I'm not here to see...

If the sun should rise and find your eyes filled with tears for me,

I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today...

While thinking of the many things we didn't get to say.

I know how much you love me, as much as I love you...

And each time you think of me, I know you'll miss me, too.

But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand

That Jesus came and called my name and took me by the hand,

He said my place was ready in heaven far above...

And that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love.

So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart...

For every time you think of me, I'm right here in your heart!


I love you Sienna and you will always be in my heart! I will write about my experience in the hospital a little later. It is a busy day for us today. The ring that she has on her toes in this picture Quin picked out for her on my birthday a few days ago and he now wears it on a necklace around his neck. He will always have her near to his heart too.

Thank you for sharing the beautiful poem. She will ALWAYS be with you. Isn't it comforting to know you have an angel watching over you? Also, that picture is adorable, her toes are so cute and tiny! :)

She is the most precious little girl -Thank you for letting me share that day with you guys. I cried on and off all day for you and for her but I know she is in a better place watching over her family. I love that poem - it brought tears to my eyes and those little tiny feet are the cutest things I have ever seen! Love you :)

We too bought a special ring to remember our Hannah. You can read about it here, if you wish http://stinkerie.blogspot.com/2010/07/it-was-supposed-to-be-car.html
Eventually seeing that ring around Quin's neck will bring warmth to you. Comfort. I continue to pray for you Teresa, and your family. Sending much love your way.

What a beautiful picture and a beautiful poem. The poem lightened my heart today as it has been heavy the past few days. I have a friend who also lost her baby in January. She is a great inspiration. Her blog is

Tears and prayers for your family Teresa. What an amazing little girl you have, one of Heaven's choicest spirits. Too pure for this world, but she will be waiting for you in Heaven, and what a day that will be.
