Beautiful baby Nicole / LaRaine Mom To Angel Cynthia Hernandez (Passer by )
When I passed by your site and started to read about beautiful Nicole I just couldn't hold back my tears. I know it is so hard for you and your family, she was such a beautiful Angel. I know how your heart hurts so much for your babygirl. I also had a beautiful Angel that I miss so much. She was murdered in 1999. I can and never will forget her either, I can hardly wait to see my daughter one day when I get to heaven as you will also see your precious daughter Nicole. Love & comfort to you and your family..God bless always~~
"I'll lend you for a little time a child of mine," He said. For you to love - while he lives And mourn for when he's dead. It may be six or seven years Or twenty-two or three, But will you, till I call him back, Take care or him for Me? He'll bring his smiles to gladden you, And should this stay be brief You'll have his lovely memories as solace for your grief. I cannot promise he will stay, Since all from earth return, But there are lessons taught down there I want this child to learn. I've looked this world over In search for teachers true, And from the throngs that crowd Life's lanes, I have selected you. Now will you give him all your love, Nor count the labor vain, Nor hate Me when I come to call to Take him back again?" I fancied that I heard then say, "Dear Lord, Thy will be done, For all the joy Thy child shall bring, The risk of grief we'll run. We'll shelter him with tenderness, We'll love him while we may, And for the happiness we've known Forever grateful stay. But should the angels call for him Much sooner than we've planned, We'll brave the bitter grief that come And try to understand."

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET ANGEL IN HEAVEN / Mommy (Mommy)
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! NICOLE!!!!!
My dear sweet Angel, Two years ago today you came into this world, into my life and into my heart and I was blessed. Thank you for all that you taught me during the time you were here. I love you with all my heart, soul and might. Our Lord needed such a perfect Angel as you in Heaven and with his promise we will again be together. You are my very special Angel and I will never let you go.
Here on earth we are put together in families. Our loved ones become inexpressibly precious to us. We live in intimate associations. One gets so close to mother and father, wife or husband, sons and daughters, that they literally become a part of one's very life. Then comes a day when a strange change comes over one that we love. He is transformed before our very eyes. The light of life goes out for him. He cannot speak to us nor we to him. He is gone and we are left stunned and heartbroken. An emptiness and loneliness comes into our hearts. We brokenheartedly say "That the one whom I loved is dead." It is such a cold, hopeless thing to realize. Then, out of the very depths of our despair, comes that marvelous declaration of our Lord: I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: and whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. John 11: 25,26
Then we know! We know we have not lost our loved ones who have died. We have just been separated, and as long as we live there will be an empty place left in our hearts. To some extent, the loneliness will always be there. But when we really know that one is not forever lost, it does seem to take away, a little bit, of the sorrow. There is a vast difference between precious memories, loneliness, the pain of separation, on the one hand, and a sorrow that ruins and blights our lives, on the other hand.
Hope these words are of comfort to you my friends. Please, please know that you are always on my mind and in my heart and prayers. My hands are not better yet, in fact the left one is very numb right now, so it is hard to type. But even though I can't write every day as I did before, I think of you every day. In Christian Love, Melissa
Not now, but in the coming years, it may be in the better land: we'll read the meaning of our tears, and there, some time, we'll understand.

I stumbled across your website by accident while looking up the lyrics to Natalie Grants song "Held". I read Nicole's story and saw her pictures. I have never been more touched by a website! I am in tears. You have the most beautiful little angel I have ever seen. Your family will be in my prayers. Close

seeing past today / Melissa Smith Blakemoore.memory-of-.com
If we could see beyond today As God can see, If all the clouds should roll away, The shadows flee; Over present grief's we would not fret, Each sorrow we would soon forget, For many joys are waiting yet For you and me. If we could know beyond today As God doth know, Why dearest treasures pass away, And tears must flow; And why the darkness leads to light, Why dreary days will soon grow bright, Some day life's wrong will be made right, Faith tells us so. If we could see, if we could know We often say, But God in love a veil doth throw Across our way. We cannot see what lies before, And so we cling to Him the more, He leads us till this life is over, Trust and obey.
A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR We've seen the passing of another year. For many it's been filled with pain and tears. We've seen our loved ones in their decline. We've had to accept that they won't be fine. Some of us had to say good bye, To a CHILD, and we've all cried. But there have been times in this past year, That certain events have brought us cheer.
(even if it was a thought of our child) There are so many friends that are on the list, And I know there's names I will have missed. But better friends I could not have bought.
(than those at memory-of) And here is just a New Year's thought. If it were possible that a wish could come true, Then this is my New Year's wish for you. May the coming year be full of hope, And may we be given the strength to cope. Let courage, faith and patience abound. And let us pray that a cure will be found.
( for our broken hearts) And now at the close of another year, My friends, I wish you a Happy New Year.

REmembering You... / Melissa Smith (grieving Mom) (none)
Holidays are fast approaching where tinsel and lights shine bright, It’s the time for family and friends to sing out carols like 'Silent Night'. ~~^~~ Perhaps a joyous time for many celebrating the birthday of our Lord, Which is the true meaning of Christmas so why do many go out, and buy presents they can't afford? ~~^~~ Christmas parties at work and home enjoying the food and being merry, As decorations are hung with mistletoe, holly and berry. ~~^~~ For some of us it's a blue time when tears cascade so often, No matter how hard we try nothing seems to soften. ~~^~~ Whether you are alone or surrounded by loved ones, Loneliness is apparent especially missing a child. ~~^~~ No matter what religion you are and celebrate your way, Just remember this one thing for many of us it's just another day.
Remembering each of you in my prayers & in my heart. May God guide you through this holiday season. Love Melissa
Happy Thanksgiving / Gina Hernandez Baby Javi's Mommy Nicole you are such a BEATIFUL baby girl, your mommy and family will be in my thoughts and prayers.. xo xo xo Close
THANK YOU FRIEND / SELMA FLYNN BOBBO.MEMORY-OF.COM (friend)
It's the time of year when we're reminded to give thanks.
Instead of waiting until next year to be reminded,
Let's make every day one of thanksgiving;
After all, each day is a unique gift.
So, give a hug for no reason;
Say I love you, just because;
Share a smile with a stranger;
Take the time to count your blessings;
Don't take anything or anyone for granted;
And end each day with no regrets.
Thank you, my friends and family,
For sharing, caring, laughing and crying with me.
I'm truly blessed to have each and every one of you in my life
And I am thankful you have allowed me
To be a part of yours.
May you and yours have a safe and memorable Thanksgiving. Close

A GUARDIAN ANGEL / SELMA FLYNN BOBBO.MEMORY-OF.COM (friend)
A GUARDIAN ANGEL
A guardian angel
Flew down from above,
To teach me a lesson
About the powers of love.
She whispers to me,
Take a hold of my hand,
There are so many things
I wish you to understand.
About the powers of love,
And all it can do,
To someone who needs
To share it with you.
A pat on the back,
A kind smile on your face,
Can make someone's life,
A much brighter place.
It doesn't take much,
To show someone you care,
To give them the love,
God gave you to share.
So please keep in mind,
All the powers you possess,
To grace someone's life,
When they're in distress.
You've been put on this earth
To bestow the powers of love,
And with those final words,
She disappeared up above. Close
I HEARD THE ANGEL SAY... / Maria Boone (Elijah's Mommy )
I thought I saw your face today, in the sparkle of the morning sun. And then I heard the angel say, "Their work on earth is done."
I thought I heard your voice today, then laugh your hearty laugh. And then I heard the angel say, "There's peace dear one at last."
I thought I felt your touch today, in the breeze that rustled by. And then I heard the angel say, "The spirit never dies."
I thought I saw my broken heart, in the crescent of the moon. And then I heard the angel say, "The Lord is coming soon."
I thought that you had left me, for the stars so far above. And then I heard the angel say, "They left you with their love."
I thought that I would miss you so, and never find my way. And then I heard the angel say, "They're with you every day." "The sun, the wind, the moon, the stars, will forever be around, reminding you of the love you shared, and the peace they've finally found
