| giving back to God, His gift to us |
| Keilab was layed to rest on 25 Jan 2002 on what would have been his great grandfather, Andrew Jackson Sowell's 81st birthday he is where Keilab got his middle name from Keilab's uncle, my brother, also has the name Andrew Jackso Sowell when i saw this background i knew i just had to use it. what peace i get when i look at this picture. how AWESOME just to think of Jesus being the first person Keilab saw when he got to Heaven. not once have i been mad at God for taking Keilab so soon from us. i could never put into words what i wanted to ask God. Then one Sunday my pastor could not have said it any better. NOT WHY BUT WHAT! what is it that God wanted me to do with Keilab's death. there was a reason for this all. i wanted so much to see God work through this and i have. we may not know all of the reasons for this happening until we get to heaven. my husband and i have leaned on God's promise that we will see Keilab again. That being the main thought every time i get sad and everyone out there who has prayed for us will be what will get us through this and it is what has gotten us this far. only by God's grace have we made it through this. God sent Jesus, His ONLY SON to die on the cross for our sins. Jesus now is alive. we believe He is alive and have accepted Him as our personal Lord and Savior. because He did this for us and because we have believed, we are promised to see our borrowed little Keilab again. Keilab is running around on streets of gold with a perfect body and he will be there waiting for us when it is our time to go. KEILAB, KNOWING YOU ARE THERE IN HEAVEN MAKES THE THOUGHT OF HEAVEN ALL THAT MUCH MORE SWEETER!!!! |

| GOOD BYE FOR NOW i can't believe that you're really gone now seems like it's all just a dream how can it be that the world will go on when something has died within me leaves will turn, my heart will burn with colors of you snow will fall, but i'll recall your warmth summer wind, breathing in your memory i'll miss you but there will come a day time when i'll see your face and we will laugh again and there will come a day when i'll hold you close no more tears to cry 'cause we'll have forever but i'll say good bye for now i can't imagine my life without you you held a place all your own just knowing you were beneath the same sky oh what a joy i have known on rainy days, in many ways you'll water my heart on starry nights i'll glimpse the light of your smile never far from my heart you'll stay with me so i'll wait but there will come a time when i'll see your face and we will laugh again and ther will come a day when i'll hold you close now more tears to cry 'cause we'll have forever but i'll say good by for now |

| THE NEW ANGEL There's a new angel in heaven whose name is Keilab He watches over you and knows that you love him The feeling you feel is ever so slight but don't worry it's just his new wings brushing you; as he bends to kiss you goodnight. he knows he'll see you again when it is your time But until then he wants you to know... he's holding God's hand and he's happy and fine Linda Dunlap |
| LITTLE ANGELS when God calls little children to dwell with Him above We mortals sometimes question the wisdom of His love. For no heartache compares with the death of one small child, Who does so much to make our world seem wonderful and mild. Perhaps God tires of calling the aged to his fold, So he picks a rosebud before it can grow old. God knows how much we need them, and so He takes but few To make the land of heaven more beautiful to view. Believing this is difficult. Still somehow we must try. The saddest word mankind knows will always be "goodbye" So when a child departs, We who are left behind, must realize God loves children, Angels are hard to find author unknown |
