Thief/ Mira's Mommy Just a shadow,. a whisper Of what was once there And everybody's sad But nobody cares. Just barely, just barely Do I believe you were here Theres no real reminder Not a stray hair Just a few moments in time As if cut out've a film Remain in my mind And still seem real Its not enough, to snatch my baby from me Must you steal, vivid memory? So all thats left , when I search in my heart For my dear sweet baby,. Is just a small part.
Merry Christmas Sunshine. This one has been difficult for me, because you are not here, and today while opening presents I couldn't help but wish you were there. Aunt Kelly got me a necklace with your picture and I love it,. but more than anything I wish you were here with your family. I think your brothers and sisters made out pretty good, and although all the parents agreed not to get each other presents,. we all broke the rules and we all got to open something. Mamaw got a really pretty necklace from Papaw, and he got a big ol' air compressor. I'm not sure what Kelly and Bj got each other but I know everyone was happy. It will never be the same with out you here sweety, but I will continue to live in your honor, and when the day comes that I get to hold you again, I believe I will be worthy. I love you sweet sunshine, I miss you so much, Please visit me in my dreams and be sure to give Mamaw and Papaw Tottsie lots a hugs and kisses! Merry Christmas Baby
For You Sweety / Mira's Mommy
A GREAT BIG HUG FROM ME TO YOU!
Give Mamaw Tottsie Big Hugs / Mira's Mommy Mira, So now another member of our family has joined you heaven. I know she will not want to put you down. For her there is no more painful arthritis, no more cancer, no more suffering. At last she has joined Papaw Dossette, and I know they could not be happier. So now there is Uncle Lonnie, LJ, Jamie (Becky's), Tucker (Kelly's), Isaiah, Mamaw and Papaw Dossette. What a crew our family must be. I can see all the grandmothers up there rocking all you baby's to your hearts content. I'm jealous because I would love to be holding you instead. I love you all,. please save rocking chair for me. I love you all.
Redundant/ Mira's Mommy They crowded 'round with hugs and kisses But still I felt alone Conversations for me were hit and misses And I knew I was on my own I tried to think positive, and just not dwell On the moments that made me sad Friends said they'd pray and wish me well But well-wishers made me mad I thought to those moments, round in my head And just could not let go "If I had just done this, instead,. She'd still be here, I know" I stared at her picture, tears bluring her face And repeatedly, apologized If I could, I'd take your place Cause my angel shouldn't have died. I'm not sure I know how to heal From this pain, deep in my soul If your in Heaven, if Heaven is real Let your peace fill in this hole. I love you, sweet angel, and hope you know You'll never be replaced No new baby could fill your tiny shoes and grow No new baby could have your sweet face. I'm not sure how this poem could end, So I'll just say goodnight I hope, I pray, we meet again,. So just, leave on the light.
You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord Who abide in His shadow for life Say to the Lord "My Refuge My Rock in Whom I trust."
And He will raise you up on eagle's wings Bear you on the breath of dawn Make you to shine like the sun And hold you in the palm of His Hand. The snare of the fowler will never capture you And famine will bring you no fear; Under His Wings your refuge His faithfulness your shield.
And He will raise you up on eagle's wings Bear you on the breath of dawn Make you to shine like the sun And hold you in the palm of His Hand. You need not fear the terror of the night Nor the arrow that flies by day Though thousands fall about you Near you it shall not come.
And He will raise you up on eagle's wings Bear you on the breath of dawn Make you to shine like the sun And hold you in the palm of His Hand. For to His angels He's given a command To guard you in all of your ways Upon their hands they will bear you up Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
And He will raise you up on eagle's wings Bear you on the breath of dawn Make you to shine like the sun And hold you in the palm of His Hand. And hold you in the palm of His Hand.

Such a precious girl. I couldn't even look at all the pictures right now because it's kind of overwhelming. My heart goes out to your family. Even though she had to go to heaven early. I can invision your ancestors playing with her and having a ball. I hope that with each year you grow stronger and remember all the great times you had with her. You all will meet again. Until then keep up the great work. Close

Today's your angel day,. and I forgot. / Mira's Mommy
I'd try to explain if I could but you know I can't Yet silence seems insufficient as well I'll try to tell myself its okay because,.. But we know its not okay.
I'd say you know I love you And you know I do,. But right now even that doesn't seem right
If you were here I'd kiss your forehead But your not here.
