Happy Birthday Angel


Happy Birthday Zoe Claire
September 10, 1995 - February 13, 1996

We were blessed with an angel, a present from above
Wrapped in pure beauty, full of innocence and love,
Gracefully she stirred, breaking the silence of night
Peace propelling its way across her gossamer flight.

Stirring, alluring, bringing sunshine most bright
This special angel gave to us wondrous delight,
No one can deny that she's not a child of the King
For with joy and happiness, she made our hearts sing.

Her enchanting smile touched all passing her way,
Declaring she merited our prayers every day,
With a cherubic face and a tiny twinkle in her eye
She was a precious gift that only heaven could supply.

Yes, our angel offered a taste of what heaven will be like
Filled with laughter, excitement and joyous delight,
This beauty is a creation of God's special design
Lord, humbly we thank you for time with this child divine.

Loving you always,
Nana

5 months, 5 years, 500 years - it's never enough time with those we love. They are always taken too soon.
I know you miss this little sweetheart, your first grandchild. There aren't adequate words to express the sadness, but remembering the joy she brought and the hope of heaven helps.
I love your family.

Such a sweet little face. Only God knows the depth of your loss. But how wonderful the assurance to know that one day, you will see her again!
