Many many thanks for all the candles and tributes left for our beautiful angel. It means so much to
us.
All your pictures added have been saved, thank you.


Our beautiful baby boy was born on 24 January 2008.
Weighing in at 1lb 7oz
24 wks+5 days gestation
Sadly left us broken hearted on 5 February 2008.

The day i found out i was expecting you was a Saturday. I did the test and couldnt believe it when
the double lines appeared. Your daddy was sitting on the sofa so i passed it to him for a look. We
were both quiet for a while. I just couldnt believe it. Thought my reaction would be different,
jumping with joy etc but i think i was just stunned and couldnt quite believe it. Your daddy always
knew you were going to be a boy even before we found out from the scans.
He always called you his special little boy.
Then our world was turned upside down. I went into unexpected labour, they think i had an
infection. You needed all the support you'd expect at that age but seemed to do ok, although very
poorly. After 12 days we had to switch off your machines as your body had just had enough. You
couldnt fight another infection. We knew this day may come but your never prepared for when you have
to actually do it.
The staff were fantastic and in the end we couldnt prolong the agony any longer.
When they lifted you out of the incubator for us to hold, you opened your eyes, like you knew it was
time to go. Watching you take your last breath is just heart wrenching. Nothing can prepare you for
that. On that day a piece of me died with you and i'l never quite feel the same again.

Not a day goes by that we dont think of you and miss you with all our hearts and WANT YOU BACK. We
love you so very much.

Some people only dream of ANGELS, we held one in our arms.

Mummy and Daddy

If Tears Could Build A Stairway

If tears could build a stairway
And memories were a lane
We would walk right up to Heaven
And bring you back again

Our hearts still ache in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No on will ever know

Since you’ll never be forgotten
We pledge to you today
A hallowed place within our hearts
Is where you’ll always stay.

A Mother's Love

The love that we feel
From the moment we know
A life's starting inside us
Continues to grow

Every butterfly kick
And wriggle in our tummy
Bonds us further still
As we become a mummy

We'd sit down sometimes
Our bump in our hands
Sharing delicate moments
And imagining plans

Then one day our world stopped
Our love mixed with pain
Apart from our baby
Our lives felt in vain

Our love will continue
Til we draw our last breath
A mother's love is stronger
Than the shadow of death

In tribute to our babies
We will build and make plans
Our hearts go on loving
But we'll never understand

Lots of Love Kelly xxxxxxxx

I stood by your bed last night;
I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying you found it hard to sleep.
I spoke to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
'It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here.'
I was close to you at breakfast,
I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached to me.
I was with you at the shops today; your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
I flew with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently landed on you; I smiled and said, 'it's me.'
You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was there.
It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, 'I never went away.'
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning and say 'good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning.'
And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll fly across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you,
there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out...
then come home to be with me.

♥★I would just like to thankyou for all your support over the last 5 months, it really means the world to me, due to circumstances I am now taking a big step back from gonetoosoon, I apologise now as there wont be many candles from myself over the coming months, I will be on over christmas to talk to your angels and I will be back for Baileys special days, but for the forseable future please bear with me, your angel will always be thought about daily and I feel so terrible for letting you down, but this is something we need to do as a family,
I sincerly hope you understand xx

Much love to you now and always ♥★

For you my friend xx

If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
And share with you its beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone.
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them in the sea
But all these things I'm finding
Are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be what I know best:
A friend that's always there

Goodnight godbless angel sending love always to you and your family always in my heart and thoughts love Anna and my angels xxxx

Take a moment of your day
To maybe sit and in your mind
Think of all the precious babies
Yours, theirs and mine

Those whose short lives were over
Before they had really ever begun
Those precious little bundles
Who have made us all a Mum

Their tiny lives have touched us all
And what I want to say
They have brought us all together
Each and every day

The babies whose beautiful faces
In our minds forever will be
Whose names are etched within our hearts
For anyone, the whole world to see

The babies who touched our lives
Who we think of through our tears
I hope in time we will be able to smile
When we remember them through the years

So this week while we remember
All our babies who had to go
We shall show the world we are united
And how we love and miss them so X♥X

for your little man xxx

MY BABY WENT TO HEAVEN TO SEE THE STARS ONE DAY
GOD SAID HE WAS SO BEAUTIFUL
HE ASKED LELAND TO STAY
HE MADE A BED OF FEATHERS
AND GAVE HIM WINGS TO FLY
MT SPECIAL LITTLE ANGEL NOW LIVES UP IN THE SKY.

Precious Leland

They say there is a reason,
They say that time will heal,
But neither time nor reason,
Will change the way I feel,
For no-one knows the heartache,
That lies behind our smiles,
No-one knows how many times,
We have broken down and cried,
We want to tell you something,
So there won't be any doubt,
You're so wonderful to think of,
But so hard to be without.
