Many of you may know that Ian, Braden and myself have endured a loss beyond our telling..Today would have been the due date of our angel baby and As I sit here and think about what today would have been I can't help but know that Braden has had a special angel looking out for him throughout this entire hospitalization.
I have not been able to find the words until now to express to a handful of individuals (and you know who you are) how much our life has been touched with the constant outpouring of love and support which has made this journey just a little easier on all of us.
To our precious angel baby that we would have met today! Caeton James we love you to the moon and back! God gave us a high honor that many will never know, for just on some people this honor is bestowed. We are a mother and father of an angel that lives with God above; God's told you all about us, so you know how much you are loved. We knew that you were special from the very start, a priceless little cherub, always part of mommy and daddy's heart. But Jesus saw an angel as he looked down below. He made us an angel's parents when he gave you your halo. And though we miss you, we know you are safe with him forever, and we are looking forward to the day when we will spread our wings together.
I'm so very sorry for the pain of this day for all of you. You just put it so eloquently. Until you have lost a baby, you do not know the pain. I mean really know it. Two dates I never forget: August 4 the day our daughter went to heaven, and December 21, the day she should've been born. Thank you for this post. It brought tears to my eyes, because I feel the exact same way.
