Devin you will be forever in our hearts and our thoughts. We love and miss you our little angel.

My little angel
So tiny yet so beautiful
My heart has a hole
That will never be filled.

Time they say heals all hurts
But how can it heal this endless emptiness
That I feel without you here with me
Empty arms that wont hold you.

Tears that fall
That no one can see
A heart that beats
But feels broken.

Longing to hold you
But knowing I never will
Imagining what could have been
Filled with troubling thoughts of what if's.

Those perfect fingers
Those perfect toes
Of an angel that once was here
But now is gone.

Written in memory of Devin

~Devin’s Story~

I found out I was pregnant with you in October 2008. It was probably one of the happiest days of my life, and I think your daddy would probably agree. The moment I knew I was having you I couldn’t wait to meet you. It was a beautiful feeling being pregnant. However, sometimes I wish it would end so I could finally hold you in my arms. Now I wish I had of cherished the 9 months we had together more than I did.

The first time I felt you kick I was ecstatic! It was the most amazing feeling in the world knowing I had a beautiful baby growing inside me. You were quite a little active baby too! When we had the ultrasound to see you we were so excited. We weren’t sure we would be able to find out your sex, but to our surprise we were. You were a boy! We were so happy.

As it neared the end of the 9 months you seemed to be a very active boy. I wanted so much to meet you and hold you for the first time.

On June 4, 2009 I went to see Dr. McCarthy for the regular pre-natal appointment. For some reason I was quite nervous waiting for the appointment. When the Dr. brought me in he went through the regular questions and then checked for the heartbeat. There was none. I thought there was a mistake. The Dr. asked me to follow him across the street to the hospital. I was shaking like a leaf. He took me to the labour and delivery ward and got me lie down. I couldn’t believe this was happening, my life was being turned upside down. The technician’s tried to find a heartbeat but they were not able to either. Than they took me for an ultrasound. The words they said to me will haunt me forever “I’m sorry your baby has diedâ€. I was devastated. I couldn’t understand how this had happened to you.

The next few hours were a blur. I waited for your daddy to be with me. He was just as devastated as I was. We spent the next few hours holding each other and crying. I gave birth to you early June 6, 2009. After the nurses took you away to bathe you I was in a state of numbness.

They brought you back an hour or so later so we could hold you. This would be the first time and the last time we got to see you, our Angel Devin. We took lots of pictures to remember you by.

Leaving the hospital with empty arms was one of the worst feelings I’ve ever experienced. All I wanted was to have you with me, but I knew I couldn’t. The only thing that brought me comfort in this time was knowing you were up in heaven watching over us.

We love you and miss you Devin and always will.

Stay close to all who Love and miss you sweetheart,
Love always,Sylvie xxxxx

☆ ♥ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥☆ ♥ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥ ♥ ☆ ♥ ☆ ♥☆ ♥ ♥ ☆
This day will be a celebration
Of the short time you were here.
You will always be remembered
With great love and many tears.

But to only feel pain and sorrow
Would not be fair to you.
Your life meant so much more to us,
More than words could say.

You were here so briefly,
I wonder if you knew
All the ways you’ve touched
Our world and our hearts

And everyone who knew you
Since the day God called you home.
Now my child, you’re an Angel
With your heavenly Father above,

We see not only what we’ve lost
But our capacity of love.
There will always be a big void
In our life and a hole in our

Hearts that will never heal.
Our souls will grieve forever.
Will we forget or stop loving you?
No! Not now…not ever.

Dear Sweet Devin ~

Today, I held your urn, your ashes,
in the palm of my hand;
It fit so snug and impossibly tiny,
that my own heart stopped beating,

just for a moment.

And then started again, filled so fully with you,
tiny boy;
with love for you and sorrow for what would never be.
Filled with thoughts of how you will grow,
year by year,

in a soft inner place no one knows.

How through the years, I will imagine your face,
alongside your brother’s.
And then, came thoughts, came expectations
of a reunion, someday,
when you will come to me and say,

“I am the grandson you grew in your heart.”

God Bless Little One,
Love,
Nana Deb

A Birthday In Heaven - by Kris Smith

I heard you crying yesterday,
And felt your heart-sent love.
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.

You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My Birthday (way up here).
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.

God planned a special day for me,
He told me with a wink.
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think).

Balloons will fill the streets for me,
They float up through the clouds.
And we have lots of friends up here
That make us laugh out loud.

There is a Birthday carousel,
Jewelled horses ride the wind,
With music playing, oh so sweet…
The magic never ends.

I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing.
We ride our bikes and play jump rope
And sleep in Angel’s wings.

We’ll have our cake and ice cream
And open gifts - SURPRISE!
But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies.

With love from your little Angel XX
