Emily Rose
Child of my heart
Your life ended
Before it could start.

I dream of my girl
With eyes of soft brown
Bouncy brown curls
In a frilly nightgown.

I'll never know why
You were taken from me
But I'll miss you my sweet one
Eternally.

Nancy(Val's mom)
DON'T MOURN FOR ME

Mother,please don't mourn for me;
I'm still here ,though you don't see.
I'm right by your side each night and day
and within your heart I long to stay.

My body is gone but I'm always near
I'm everything you feel,see or hear.
My spirit is free,but i'll never depart
as long as you keep me alive in your heart.

I'll never wander out of your sight--
I'm the brightest star on a summer night.
I'll never be beyond your reach--
I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach.

I'm the colorful leaves when fall comes around,
And the pure white snow that blankets the ground.
I'm the beautiful flowers of which you're so fond--
The clear cool water in a quiet pond.

I'm the first bright blossom you'll see in the spring;
The first warm raindrop that April will bring.
I'm the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine,
And you'll see that the face in the moon is mine.

When you start thinking there's no one to love you,
You can talk to me through the Lord above you.
I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees,
And you'll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze.

I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep
And the beautiful dreams that come while you sleep.
I'm the smile you see on a baby's face.
Just look for me ,Mommy.
I'm everyplace!

Our Little Angel

There is a little angel so precious and dear
And it is so hard we are wishing she were here
Emily Rose took her flight one cool fall day
On October 12, 2000 our love for her is here to stay
She placed such love deep within our hearts
And we have loved her from the very start
Robbie, Aaron and Matthew miss her so much
For their little sister who they can't reach out and touch
Her curls touch her soft little face
Giving kisses for us to embrace
She speaks of love from heaven to me
And I just know that she is ok you see
She touched our lives in many different ways
Sometimes it is even very hard to say
Just how much she means to us here
And how hard to have her up there
But we know we will meet again someday
And oh what words will be able to say
She will forever be our little one
I know in heaven she is having so much fun
Emily we miss your pressence down here
But we know you are safe and happy up there
We will one day see your sweet little face
And be able to atlast have you to embrace
Love Mommy, Daddy, Robbie, Aaron and Matthew
