Remember me when the flowers bloom early in the spring. Remember me on the sunny days in the fun that summer brings. Remember me in the fall as you walk through leaves of gold. And in the wintertime in the stories that are told. But most of all remember each day--right from the start. I will be forever near for I live within your heart.

Please remember the good times we had. When you do, you won't be so sad. I am always with you and never far away. I'm in every thought you have every single day. I know your tears will still fall, you do miss me after all. I am so happy and free. I am with JESUS, where I need to be.

I Can Dream.....There's no fairy godmother to make my wish come true. No genie in a bottle to bring me to you. No prayer on a fallen star. No magic potion in a jar. But I can dream and when I do, I dream that I'm there with you.

The Message~~Everything is different since you've gone away. Our hearts keep on breaking just a little more each day.~~But don't look at this as the end but just the very start. Together for eternity never again to be apart.~~But we feel so sad that GOD took you away. We are so scared and lonely and miss you every day.~~Please know I didn't leave you. I loved you all so much. One day we'll be together to see, to feel, to touch.~~You say you didn't leave then why are we so blue. How can we get through the day, when we need to talk to you.~~I'm here and I will listen. My love did not depart. Ask anything you want and I will answer in your heart.

They say that hearts don't really break. Dear GOD that isn't true. The day you took Christian away, our hearts just broke in two.
