Just a big thank u to everyone who visits and lights candles or even leaves little pictures on
liddys site its ever so lovely, and really heart-warming xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

my little girl lydia was born on the 1st of march 2002, she is a twin to my little boy levi, she was
born 7 weeks premature weighing 4lb 12oz.

After spending 4 weeks in special care they was allowed home, i couldnt of been happier, time flew
by as i was very busy looking after the twins and courtney my eldest daughter, i thought they was
doing great...............................................

then on the 18th of may i woke up early in the morning and call it instinct i knew straight away
that something was not right...

My little girl was laying there motionless, my world came crashing down, i went from the happiest
person in the world, she died from a condion called myo-carditis which is inflamation of the heart.

i am told she died peacefully, not a single day goes past when i dont think of her, and she lives on
in her brother levi,

since she passed away she also has another brother called ollie, who is just like her,

mummy and daddy love u very much baby girl, i just wish sooooo much u was here wiv us today!

Don't tell me that you understand
Don't tell me that you know,
Don't tell me that I will survive
Or how I will surely grow.

Don't tell me that this is just a test
That I am truly blessed
That I am chosen for this task
Apart from all the rest.

Don't come at me with answers
That can only come from me,
Don't tell me how my grief will pass,
That I will soon be free.

Don't stand in pious judgment
Of the bounds I must untie,
Don't tell me how to suffer
And don't tell me how to cry!

My life is filled with selfishness,
My pain is all I see,
But, I need you now,
I need your love, unconditionally.

Accept me in my ups and downs,
I need someone to share,
Just hold my hand and let me cry,
And say, "My friend, I care."




Footprints

One night a man had a dream.
He dreamed he was walking
along the beach with the Lord.
Across the sky flashed scenes
from his life,
for each scene,
he noticed two sets of footprints
in the sand, one belonging to him
the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of his life
flashed before him,
he looked back at the footprints in the sand.
He noticed that many times
along the path of his life
there were only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it happened
at the very lowest
and saddest times in his life.

This really bothered him
and he questioned the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said that once I decided
to follow you,
you would walk with me all the way.
But I have noticed
that during the most troublesome times
in my life there is only one set of footprints.
I do not understand why when I needed you most
you would leave me?"

The Lord replied
"My precious child, I love you and
I would never leave you.
During your times of trial and suffering
when you see only one set of footprints
it was then that I carried you."

Children

Mothers, touch your children,
Fathers, hug them tight,
Let them know you love them
morning, noon, and night.
Put your arms around them,
hold them near to you,
Feel the beating of their hearts,
the life that you made new.
Roll around the floor with them,
tease and laugh and play,
Listen to what they'll tell you,
they have so much to say.
Take time to get to know them,
see the colors in their eyes,
Appreciate that person
that deep inside them lies.

Let them run their fingers through your hair
and down your face,
Fill their hearts with words of praise,
make home their favorite place.
Cuddle with them on the couch
and watch a t.v. show,
Sing with them or share a book
and help their world to grow.
Take a walk into the park,
hold each other's hand,
Smell the flowers, feed the ducks,
build castles in the sand.

Mothers, touch your children,
Fathers, hug them tight,
Show them what a gift they are,
to love them feels so right.

I SAID A PRAYER FOR YOU TODAY

I said a prayer for you today
And know God must have heard.
I felt the answer in my heart
Although He spoke not a word.
I didn't ask for wealth or fame
I knew you wouldn't mind.
I asked for priceless treasure rare
Of a more lasting kind.
I prayed that He'd be near you
At the start of each new day
To grant you health and blessings fair,
And friends to share your way.
I asked for happiness for you
In all things great and small
But that you'd know his loving care
I prayed the most of all.


mummy loves u so much baby girl, and always will, xxxxxxxxxxxx

Always In My Thoughts !

Lydia - A DAY NEVER GOES BY WHEN I DON'T THINK ABOUT YOU AND IN DOING SO I OFTEN RECALL THE DAYS WHEN I WOULD LOOK AFTER YOU ALONG WITH YOUR BROTHER LEVI AND SISTER COURTNEY.
I WILL NEVER FORGET THE LONG FLOWING EYE LASHES THAT YOU HAD JUST AS LEVI HAS NOW.
IN LEVI I SEE YOU AND I MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH.
I CAN RECALL ALSO THE FIRST AND ONLY TIME I BATHED YOU.THAT WAS A BEAUTIFUL MOMENT IN MY LIFE.
I CAN ALSO RECALL WHEN YOUR FATHER JOHN BROUGHT YOU AND LEVI UP TO THE HOUSE.YOU WERE WEARING PINK AND LEVI WAS IN BLUE.
I ASKED JOHN WHO WAS WHO,THAT WAS A FUNNY MOMENT.
I MISS YOU LYDIA AND I WILL BE AT MASS ON SUNDAY TO LIGHT A CANDLE FOR YOU ON WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN YOUR SEVENTH BIRTHDAY.
MAY THE ANGELS THAT SURROUND YOU FOREVER LOOK AFTER YOU.HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEAUTIFUL.

~~ The Angels ~~

May angels rest beside your door
May you hear their voices sing
May you feel their loving care for you
May you hear their peace bells ring

May angels always care for you
And not let you trip and fall
May they bear you up on angels wings
May they keep you standing tall

May they whisper wisdom in your ear
May they touch you when you need
May they remove you from each trace of fear
May they keep you from feeling greed

May they fill you with their presence
May they show you love untold
May they always stand beside you
And make you ever bold

May they teach you what you want to know
About life here and here-after
May they fill you always with their love
And give you the gift of laughter


~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~


~~ Angel In My Pocket ~~

I am a tiny angel
I'm smaller than your thumb
I live in peoples pockets
That's where I have my fun

I don't suppose you've seen me
I'm too tiny to detect
Though i'm with you all the time
I doubt we've ever met

Before I was an angel...
I was a fairy in a flower
God himself hand picked me
And gave me angel power

Now god has many angels
That he trains in angel pools
We become his eyes and ears and hands
We become his special tools

And because god is so busy
With way too much to do
He said that my assignment
Is to keep close watch on you

When he tucked me in your pocket
He blessed you with angel care
Then told me to never leave you
And I vowed always to be there

~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~


~~ Guardian Angels ~~

When angels sense you need them
and angels always do.....
they come unseen from everywhere
to help and comfort you
they hover close beside you
till all your cares are gone
till they can see you're ready
once again to carry on

Then some of them may fly away
and take their gentle touch
to other hearts that need
the love of angels very much
but one at least stays with you
as your constant friend and guide
for guardian angels never leave
they're always at your side

~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~ ~xXx~

Love Always ~~ Elaine...x♥x

.β˜† * β˜† * β˜† * β˜† *β˜† * β˜† * .β˜† * β˜† * β˜† * β˜† *β˜† * β˜†
I've listened to the footprints poem
a million times or more
of how when only one set shows
upon the sandy shore
it's the lord carrying us
and taking on our load
and his are the only set
of footprints that showed

But what if when we look
there are no footprints to be found?
all we see is plain and simple
sand upon the ground
no imprints showing that our lord
is carrying us through life
helping us when we feel
we can not handle all this strife

Where is my lord now that i've fallen
and can't seem to get back up?
so tired and lonely
trying to deal with what seems
an overflowing cup
where are those footprints
in the sand
to tell me he's right there?
helping me with problems
and showing that he really does care

Does he have favourites, OH NO
please tell me that's not so
but why does life seem easier
for some people that I know?
and sometimes I just scream out loud
although it seems in vain
but often gets harder each day
to deal with all this pain

And then it dawned on me
as I realize how simple could it be
I wonder why I was so blind
that I truly did not see
it must have been a lightening bolt
that one day gave me light
because out of the clear blue sky
I finally regained my sight

I saw a fluffy white cloud
shaped like an angel dear
that helped me to understand
and see things oh so clear
that's when I saw no footprints
and so often wondered why
my lord carried me on angel wings
when he decided to fly.

ANGEL WINGS YOU WEAR...♥ღ♥


The day you left broke our hearts
and the tears fell like rain,
but knowing that you now have wings
helps to ease the pain.

♥ღ♥

We know now when the snow falls
it is Angel dust from you
and when we see a shooting star
our Angel just passed through.
♥ღ♥

The rain drops do not make us sad
for they are not tears,
but sprinkles of love falling down,
our Angel again is near.
♥ღ♥

The winter cold has even changed,
Jack Frost no longer exists,
it's now a visit from our Angel
and he's left a special gift.
♥ღ♥

You also visit in the night,
your wings flutter with grace,
we know now when we awaken
that an Angel has kissed our face.
♥ღ♥

When the days are warm and bright
and the sun shines from above,
we feel the warmth wrap around us,
you've given an Angel hug.
♥ღ♥

You are with us at all times,
every day and night,
you try to end the pain we have
and the tears that we still cry.
♥ღ♥

Though Heaven is your home now
and Angel wings you wear,
you stay close to those you love,
until they join you there.
♥ღ♥

I would like to say thank you from the bottom of my heart, For you being so caring and keeping Aysha, Karl, The Flowers and the rest of my Angels in love while I have not been able too, I really appriciated it so much, You are a special person.
I feel able to come back now, or I am going to try, So bare with my if candles are a bit hit and miss.
Thank you so much, You've helped me cope.

Hugs from Heaven....

Hugs From Heaven
by Charlotte Anselmo

When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From a loved one way up high.

If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose.

If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From someone special up above.

If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebird's chirping song
It's music sent from Heaven
To cheer you all day long.

If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
It's a hug sent from Heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace.

So keep the joy in your heart
If you're lonely my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from Heaven
A broken heart will mend.

MEMORIES OF YOU

Memories of you...
Will stay in my heart forever,
Memories of you...
I will always treasure.
Memories of you...
make me feel warm inside,
Memories of you...
are the love I cannot hide.
Memories of you...
help me through the day,
Memories of you...
will never fade away.
Memories of you...
are beautiful and dear,
They seem to grow still brighter
with every passing year.

A GUARDIAN ANGEL

Flew down from above,
To teach me a lesson
About the powers of love.
She whispers to me,
Take a hold of my hand,
There are so many things
I wish you to understand.
About the powers of love,
And all it can do,
To someone who needs
To share it with you.
A pat on the back,
A kind smile on your face,
Can make someone's life,
A much brighter place.
It doesn't take much,
To show someone you care,
To give them the love,
God gave you to share.
So please keep in mind,
All the powers you possess,
To grace someone's life,
When they're in distress.
You've been put on this earth
To bestow the powers of love,
And with those final words,
She disappeared up above.

Love Always Elaine xxxxx
