8 Months

My Dearest Ava,

Today marks 8 months since you were born sleeping. Sometimes it seems just like yesterday. This morning I woke up thinking back on how excited we were when we found out that we were having another little girl. I bought you and Ally so many matching dresses and Ally was so excited. I know that you are probably having so much fun in Heaven, but it still hurts so much to know that you cant be here with me. Please stay close to me today, I love you sweetheart!!

XOXOXO,
Mommy

A special person introduced me to this song today not knowing what today meant to me. You know who you are and thank you. :)

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 aday 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…
