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… BRIDGE:
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…
I wrote this today, and I don't know if it's very good or not, but I liked it so I wanted to share it with you ladies.
In my heart
I never met you in the flesh
but you were always there in my heart
I felt your little flutter-bye winged caresses
as the nurse told me that unfortunately
we had lost you.
But you were never lost
you were where you belonged all along
in my heart
and I hugged myself believing that one day
you'd come back to me
even though I knew it'd be the other way around
And I imagined a field of daisies
washing away the pain of infertility
and seeds growing up
as flowers obscured the pain
of pregnancy loss
I dreamed of you tonight
curled in oblivion
playing with your hair as you slept
as the light kissed you as
I wished I could
Softly crying through each night
I think of you
and what should have been
and what couldn't be.
Sleep on angel,
sleep on treasure,
until I can meet you
again some day.
-SLHoward

As you can see from my sig, I have not experienced the loss of my own child. But in July 2007 I was visiting my sister and accompanied her to a routine midwife check up at 17 weeks. There we discovered her son had died. I stayed with her family for 7 days to help. Upon delivering their baby, who they chose to name Star, it was discovered that he had died due to his umbilical cord being twice around his neck. Next month, 14th July, will be his first 'birthday'. Some words I found which seemed to help my sister slightly were;
Grief cannot be dry-cleaned, it must be washed with tears.
My heart goes out to anyone who has suffered the loss of a child.

I wanted to share a book I found incredibly healing. It's called "Born to Fly--An Infant's Journey to God"
Twenty-three years after her son Nathans stillbirth, Cindy Claussen was filled with a need to write this story of hope and healing.
Designed with soft colors and simple illustrations, the pages of Born to Fly An Infants Journey God, contain Nathans conversation with God as he hears his fathers strong voice and experiences the sensation of his Mothers warm touch for the first time. "I will kick her so she knows I love her too," Nathan tells God. When Nathan shares with God that he is not feeling well and is growing weary, God wipes His eyes and tells the child that soon he will fly. "I will fly? Will my mother fly with me?" Nathan asks. "Someday," God assures him. The simplicity of the story is what makes it so powerful.
Born to Fly is indeed a little treasure that is sure to leave its delicate imprint on your heart.
A review of the book by CJ "Mom of 3 on Earth and 4 who fly" Having suffered a stillbirth two months ago, a bereavement nurse gave this book to me today. It couldn't have been published at a better time. It is so poignant, touching and beautiful. It made me cry, but it is a healing cry. My husband and friends were equally moved by it. I am ordering it for my angel baby's grandparents and will tuck my copy safely away in my memory box like the treasure that it is and review it from time to time for heartwarming hopefulness. I cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone who has suffered the loss of a precious baby through miscarriage or stillbirth.
I made a video to go along with it and there is an AMAZING SONG too.

YOUR HANDS by JJ Heller LYRICS
I have unanswered prayers
I have trouble I wish wasn't there
And I have asked a thousand ways
That You would take my pain away
That You would take my pain away
I am trying to understand
How to walk this weary land
Make straight the paths that crookedly lie
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
Oh Lord, before these feet of mine
When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands
When You walked upon the Earth
You healed the broken, lost, and hurt
I know You hate to see me cry
One day You will set all things right
Yea, one day You will set all things right
When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave Your hands
Your hands
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still
Your hands that shape the world
Are holding me, they hold me still
When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave You when...
When my world is shaking
Heaven stands
When my heart is breaking
I never leave...
I never leave Your hands
