Born to earth, part of the plan
Tiny feet, tiny hands
She had a glow her skin so fair
How could they know how much they'd care?
Placed in their arms, her tiny face
One look made love death can't erase.
She laughed, she danced, she kissed, and hugged
Each one she met their heartstrings tugged.
Her mommy's peace, her daddy's joy
And now an angel for the boy
Her dancing feet dance lightly through
Dance on they do and she giggles too
Her laugh was happy, so carefree
Filled with happiness and glee
Her little trot, a silly run
Blessed with parents who made life fun
They snuggled and cuddled her everyday
And now they hold her a different way
A beautiful plan to help us see
A love that lasts eternally
Our Father above, He's holding her hand
And while this is hard, it's part of the plan
Their family's forever, death cannot part
They'll cherish forever her place in their heart
She laughed, she danced, she kissed, and hugged
Each one she met their heartstrings tugged.
Her mommy's peace, her daddy's joy
And now an angel for the boy
Our Heavenly Father gave His child too
He knew pain would come to me and to you
So He sent His son from our home above
A gift that would tell us of his perfect love
Family's forever, together we'll be
Her parents will hold her again on their knee
One day in heaven they'll snuggle again
They'll hold her forever, there will be no end.
~Love, Aunt Debbie

To the Stone and Humphrey family,
Your story and tragedy has gripped my heart, and I think and pray for you every day as you work through each stage of healing. In 2005 our family suffered a similar loss and still miss our angels dearly (forever 5 & 8)..
I hope you can all feel the comfort and prayers sent your way from all who grieve with you.
Wanted to share another poem, to go with your beautiful post today:
Few are chosen to know perfection
for it lasts just a brief moment,
blessing those elected to handle its care
Perfection comes to bring joy and happiness,
filling the heart with wondrous elegance.
Perfection leaves an infinite impression
joining the young and the old,
the weak and the strong, the rich and the poor.
In its path is the confidence of heaven,
of God, of a special place beyond here and now.
I have seen perfection face to face
and have been touched by its tenderness,
I have heard its cry and its laughter.
Perfection came to visit me one day,
Its flawless beauty forever enchanting my soul.
Wow! I came across your blog from the article on KSL and am so saddened for you. I cannot imagine the pain and grief your family is going through right now. Although I do not know your family personally I will be keeping you and your entire family in my prayers. Just think of your precious angel in heaven living a life with no worries or fears and knowing she will be safe with our heavenly father until you can be with her again someday.
