Isabelle Grace was my little angel, she was a miracle and little fighter. During her short time in the world, she developed her own special little personality. She was also very well travelled! She was born in Surrey and as i am not from there, we had to wait there for 5 days before getting moved to Bradford Hospital, and eventually going to Leeds Hospital, then Martin House Hospice who are amazing, and we didnt know what we would have done without them. All the staff at every neonatal unit as thats where Isabelle was for most of them time, were amazing and have Inspried me. When Isabelle was born, i had been put to sleep so i didnt get to see her until the next day and the moment I saw her I fell in love with her, she was so gorgeous and she was so tiny too,and when we had our daily cuddles I never wanted to let her go, she was just amazing.She was in the unit upstairs and I was on a different wards. They knew the next day something was wrong, but all they did tests but when we got to Bradford Hospital the results came back and we found out she had Edwards Syndrome, which meant that Isabelle had an extra chromosome number 18. They said that she probably wouldnt live to after a year old, and the statistics showed that babies that have this normally dont live past the first month, some up to 3 months and some arent born at all, so we thought she was a miracle to be here and just make her time happy and enjoy everyday she was here. We couldnt believe it, that she would be taken away as quickly as she came.We eventually went to Martin House Hospice who are great and were great. Everyone loved Isabelle, they were all fighting over cuddles with her she was a popular little lady! And she loved her Hats, she had a very good collection of them and they knew her has the Hat girl! She also had her first bath while at Martin House, which she cried all the way through and didnt seem to like it but she slept for the whole day even through feeding time! which only meant one thing, she would be awake at night!Night owl just like me.
When we finally got Isabelle home, she was very cheeky and usually woke up while everyone else wanted to go to bed! But she was worth every minute of it, we took her for a walk in a pram, just around the block, for about ten minutes she seemed to enjoy it as it always sent her to sleep. We also bought her like a yellow sponge type thing that you were meant to put in a bath, but we used it to change her on, as it was comfy for her and she always used to lay and open her big gorgeous eyes and look around and as soon as we changed her nappy, about 20 seconds later we had to do it again!She called herself a lady !! We tried to give her anotther bath at home, but she really didnt like it, she let out a scream and we didnt give her one in the end, we used to just wash her with cotton wool and water. At home on the night on 19th November she decided she just couldnt fight anymore and went to sleep in my arms, and she had been fed and there was me, my mum and dad and my brother all around. She was such a little angel, she meant the world, and she was loved by so many people, even ones that hadnt had a chance to meet her and she will always be in everyones hearts.

Twinkle Twinkle little star
Way up high is where you are
Up above the world so high
I never got to say goodbye

Twinkle Twinkle little star
How we wonder how you are
I think of you night and day
I only wished, you never went away.

Twinkle Twinkle little star
I know its our angel, calling from afar
When we look up at the sky at night
We always see a shooting star flying by
thats very bright

Feelings - by Joy Curnett

I feel like I've just existed
And now it's been two years
I don't know how I've lived and breathed
Without you being here.

I know you lived your lifetime
As short as that seems to me,
But the pain in my heart is still so great,
Yet I know your spirit is free.

At times I think I hear you
The thoughts come to my mind.
I struggle for the sound of your voice,
But your voice I cannot find.

Yet you come to me in many ways
So I know you did not die,
You want to tell me that you' re close,
And to please stop asking why?

Our lives on earth seem all too brief,
Or brief as it seems to me.
But where you are is forever,
God calls that Eternity !

Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett

"Happy Birthday Isabella"
It's sure to be the best one yet,
Though you left us here behind.
Did you think that we'd forget?

Your cake this year, will surely be,
A beauty to behold.
With the icing made of Silver,
And the candles made of Gold.

Yes, your birthday in Heaven,
Will be such a grand affair.
And I know you'll look so lovely,
With a halo in your hair.

The Angels will come from everywhere,
To sing your birthday song.
And I know they'll be so happy,
That you've joined, God's Happy Throng.

No I can't send a card this year,
Or give a gift so fine.
So I'll just send a special prayer,
To that wonderful Daughter of yours.

God needed an angel in heaven

When Jesus lived upon the earth so many years ago,
He called the children close to him because he loved them so.....
And with that tenderness of old, that same sweet, gentle way,
He holds your little loved one close within his arms today.....
And you’ll find comfort in your faith that in his home above
The God of little children gives your little one his love....
So think of you little darling lighthearted and happy and free
Playing in God’s promised land where there is joy eternally.

Precious Child by Karen Taylor Good

In my dreams, you are alive and well
Precious child, precious child
In my mind, I see you clear as a bell
Precious child, precious child
In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart, there is hope
'Cause you are with me still

In my heart, you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart

In my plans, I was the first to leave
Precious child, precious child
But in this world, I was left here to grieve
Precious child, my precious child

In my soul, there is a hole
That can never be filled
But in my heart there is hope
And you are with me still

In my heart you live on
Always there, never gone
Precious child, you left too soon,
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart

God knows I want to hold you,
See you, touch you
And maybe there's a heaven
And someday I will again
Please know you are not forgotten until then

In my heart you live on
Always there never gone
Precious child, you left too soon
Tho' it may be true that we're apart
You will live forever... in my heart

HAPPY EASTER XXX

SKY BUNNIES

() ()
('.')
(')_(')
The sky is full of bunny clouds
So soft and fat and white,
I wonder if they're hiding eggs
For angels to find with delight.

Because angels like Easter as well, you know,
And there's no reason why
There shouldn't be an Easter hunt
In meadows in the sky.

*• ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ .•**•.. ♥ •*
When you feel you miss me most,
As time goes drifting by,
Each memory will prove to you,
That love can never die,
That while I left you far too soon,
I did not go alone,
For the Father sent his Angels,
To gently guide me home,
Take comfort when you think of me,
Keep my love deep within your Heart,
And with the warmth of each memory,
We will never be apart.
