http://www.babycenter.com/bbs/4298/thread639/mess age3.html I am sure most,if not all of you by now know of our tragic story of losing our sweet Kyla T to a pool drowning just 3 months ago! Kyla would be 21/2 now and i am sure would be speaking more of the 500+ words she already spoke! We are hoping to add another bundle of love into our hearts to share stories of his/her big sister! "The air of summer was sweeter than wine."..Longfellow Remember Remember me when I am gone away, gone far into the silent land: when you can no more hold me by the hand, nor I half turn to go yet turning sta. remember me when no more day by day you tell me of our future that you planned: Only remember me;you understand It will be late to counsel then or pray. Yet if you should forget me for awhile and afterwards remember, do not grieve: for if the darkness and corruption leave a vestige of the thoughts that once I had, Better by far you should forget and smile than that you should remember me and be sad. --Christina Georgina Rossetti
I dreamed for you for all my life, And one day you finally arrived. So happy, Giving us your 'big hugs' and making mommy and daddy kiss each other and then you. You loved all the animals we had and all the zoo animals too. I am no longer jealous that there were times you wanted your daddy or big sisters more than me. 'cos i always knew i had the biggest part in your heart too, as you hold in mine. Then one day, you vanished, and were left to breathe on machines, you were never there, and we had to let you go.. We will always love you, my sweet little 'punky-girl' Please~ Please, don't ask me if I'm over it yet. I'll never be over it. Please, don't tell me she's in a better place. She's not with me. Please, don't say she isn't suffering. I haven't come to terms as to why she had to suffer at all. Please don't tell me you know how I feel. Unless you have lost a child. Please don't ask me if I feel better. Bereavement isn't a condition that clears up. Please don't tell me atleast you had her for several years. What year would you choose your child to die? Please don't say god never gives you more than you can handle. Please, just say your sorry. Please, just say you'll remember my child. Please, just let me talk about my child PLease, mention my child. Please, just let me cry!!!!
No words capture her No quote suffices No image is complete Yet she was Yet she is Yet she will be Forever
Monday, March 24, 2003 The sun shines today And the air is warm Last year this time pappy was here Visiting you. But no pappy visiting this year He came while you lay dying And no you this year Five whole months have gone Already some forget Most moved on Daddy and I try And we will move on But we will never forget I try not to remember That day I only want to remember you Being happy Singing and dancing Picking dandelions in the yard I can handle these happy tears I cry I cannot handle the sad/angry ones When those visions appear I want those gone I want you back I can�t and won�t get you back I know I want a baby brother or sister for you So bad it hurts. Mommy has so much more love to give Well my Ky, I�m sending you a balloon today I don�t know where you are If you �are� anywhere But the air is warm And the sun is shining And I feel the need to take time To remember you My sweet little punky girl!
Missing You No words I write can ever say, How much I miss you everyday. As time goes by the loneliness grows, How I miss you...nobody knows. I think of you in silence, I often speak your name . But all I have are memories, And a photo in frame. No one see's me weep. But the love I have for you, Is in my heart and mine to keep. I never stopped loving you, I don't think I ever will. Deep inside my heart, You are with me still. Heartaches this world are many, But mine is worse than any. My heart still aches as I whisper low, "I need you....and miss you so." The things we feel so deeply, Are often the hardest things to say. But I just can't keep quite anymore, So I'll tell you anyway. There is a place in my heart, That no one can fill. I love you...and I always will. ~Author Unknown~
COME CLOSER~ ~AUTHOR UNKNOWN~ Come closer, can you hear the pain? My heart can tell you thing that my mouth cannot utter. The mask I wear shows a smile. It says that I am fine. But the pain deep within. You were taken so quickly, there was no time for good-bye. In one quick breath, your life was gone. Why? Seasons come, bringing forth flowers' bloom. Seasons go and blossoms wane. You, dear child, live in my heart, and there, you will never die. Come closer, come closer, listen to my heart. I remember; I will always remember. You are there.
It must be very difficult to be a man in grief. Since "men don't cry" and no tears can bring relief. It must be very difficult to stand up to the test. And hold calls and visitors so she can get some rest. They always ask if she's all right and what she's going through. But seldom takes his hand and asks "My friend, how are you?" He hears her crying in the night and thinks his heart will break And dries the tears and comforts her But "stays strong" for her sake It must be very difficult to start each day anew And try to be so very brave He lost his baby too...... ~Author Unknown~
Now it is six whole months today Since you slipped under the water And left us this way The time It goes by slow Oh lil� one of mine Why did you go? The time, It can go so fast Oh lil one of mine How long will this pain last? You went on a �trip� with us All the way to Georgia But this time you didn�t make a fuss Because it was just your urn, lil Kyla! You would have bossed around Riley, the older And loved on new Keagan baby I hope one day you can look over the shoulder Of a sibling we give you one day, maybe Six whole months since your drowning And we only have video and pictures of you now When I view them, I�m not always frowning Because you are always with us, some how.
Thursday,April 24,2003 (6mo) It is raining steady outside, Like my tears, ever flowing. Are you weeping with me? Do you miss mommy? The thunder pounds, Like my heart does when I think of �That day� Lightening flashes, Like your life being struck away. The air is cool, Like your skin when I touched you. Like my heart when I found you, In that dang pool. The way you looked that pale shade of blue. Oh how I wish you just pulled through.
Weather Amongst all the rain, twisters and floods I felt it all inside The flooding and drowning of rain/water being dumped mixed w/my tears And my emotions twisting up in knots inside my gut And my heart. Just like a tornado I want to be a tornado, to rip through the earth and sky.. And to just disappear Like it never even happened� And leave behind so many memories of YOU But today there was a touch of sun I felt its warmth on the back of my neck Like your arms clutching me closer Afraid of the storms Afraid, of anything, just wanting me near
Oh what storm it has been My love My emotions change oh too much, Just like the weather.
Mothers Day is here And my birthday has passed It has been 7 months since you drowned And I no longer have a mother And I no longer have a child For I am a motherless child A childless mother Searching for some warmth Understanding Remembrance Of the both of you Who held so much So dear To my heart
Father's day, it's just like mother's day? ' Is it not? I'm told to 'do' things.. b ut hey.. isnt this 'my' day? I had you too, I lost you too? Did i not? where is my baby girl? who cried 4 daddy on his lunch breaks..? who wanted me to be 'the tiger' crawling on my hands and knees? making a tent and making 'mean means'? My lil girl is now gone, i hurt not less than her mom..
no one looks at me the same they only say my name.. kyla, your name does not belong no longer in daddy's world.. but please, my sweet lil girl.. you remain... always.. with me!
We did it, Kyla's gonna be a big sis! baby due feb11th! Please visit my new baby brother or sister's site! It is hard to believe a whole year has passed. I miss you no less than the last. Though baby brother is coming soon, In my heart, you'll always loon. I think of you every day. To me, my love, you'll never go away. KYla is gonna be a big sister again! Little sister, Zilya Faye is due to arrive March '05 http://konorchance.aboutmybaby.com Konor's website www.zilyafaye.com Zilya was born 3/10/05, with lots of hair, blue eyes, 6lbs 14oz 18.5" --- ------------------------------------------------- I lay in bed on a dark, stormy night I drift off to sleep, my mind takes flight I dream of places far and near I wish you could be here. I hear your voice and see your smile I wish it would last a little while I sometimes wonder if you ever knew... That I lay in my bed, dreaming of you. ~ Melissa Doyle
Just stopping by baby to update your page so it doesn't get deleted..again. Miss you always. ~2/20/06 wow, baby punky girl..hard to believe you've been gone this long now. oh how my life has changed..you're still thought of or spoke about happily daily. Your lil brother Konor, can now say your name..well sort of...but...he knows you in pictures baby...! 4/11/6...this past sat marked 3.5yrs since you drown..and this coming friday marks the exact age of konor as you when drown...from here on out..new world..
Well, here I am again...4yrs now since you drown. Wow, time is flying by. Your brother and sister are doing great, and I worry about them daily. You're still with me baby, always.
Wow, I don't frequent here...and it is amazing to know it exists...5 years?? how can that be? I'm sad that I can't think of many thing about you. How many memories in 2.5 yrs can a person hold onto? That makes me sad. However punky...it doesn't mean that I don't hold onto them.. that I don't think of you daily, that your lil brother or sister don't now talk about you like they knew you. For you do live on in them then. THey know of your death and are aware. They always will, trust me baby. I'm just scared cos my memories are just that of death or pictures... But there is no way I'll ever let you go. sometimes,like today, I'm taken aback by a question about you...cos I feel like i've said it enuff/ so many times..or most know by now. But there will always be the new people, esp since I 'advertise'..what do I expect?
anyways, no, still won't ever be over you..neither will ur daddy. and yes your big sisters and lil bro/sis love and miss you soooooo much. It is hard to imagine I'm a mom of a 'would be 7yr old. How would I be? what school would you be in? How smart would you be? we assumed very...but.. I dunno baby, your bro Konor is topping the charts these days..hee he.. But perhaps you'd be teaching him a thing or three.
I am still yet determined to have yet one last child. some say crazy.. but I did want three...living.....but don't ever take it that I'm replacing you!!! I'm just not done... daddy maybe tho. and we talked about fostering kids...again tonite.. Last year woulda been better, more room...Might have to wait til the older girls are gone first. what can I say? I love my kids, all kids and I just can't stop... If I were as fertile as my one friend...well I'd be the same way.. hee he..
Happy holidays babe....Happy solstice.. I kknow, we never did 'xmas' w/you either..but I guess giving in this yr....for pagan non religious reasons.
