I will not forget Tucker and what he taught me...about love and loss, about spirit and angels.  I play "Here Comes The Sun" by the Beatles every morning for him. I pray to God every night, and enclose a hug, a kiss, and an "I Love You" for him.  I keep a copy of his ultrasound picture in my car, and on my computer.  I will not wallow in my grief and let it consume me, but I will not forget the baby whose Mommy I will always be.

Silent Child

My silent child

Our precious baby.

Close to my heart,

I'll keep you with me.

An important job,

God has for you,

There is love to give

And work to do.

He needs an angel,

Strong but small.

To shine light on many,

And give love to all.

Before you go,

I give you this-

Half my heart

And one last kiss!

We'll miss you dearly,

That we know,

But by God you were chosen,

So to heaven, you must go...

Love, Daddy

Tucker's Loss Anniversary March 28

I have a special angel in Heaven he, floats on golden wings.  Every time I laugh or smile, my special angel rejoices-and sings!
