In Love and Honor of My Beloved Daughter,
Grace Trinity Slade








Little Footprints

How very softly
you tiptoed into my world.
Almost silently,
only for a moment you stayed.
But what an imprint
your footprints has left
upon my heart.



Grace, you were in my heart
before I knew you.
God blessed the day you
came to me.

Please don't grieve our loss but celebrate with us, for each life is a true miracle no matter how long they are with us.
Grace was born asleep on May 27th 2006 at 8:20PM, due to an undiagnosed incompetent cervix, she weighed just 3 tiny ounces.  She is now dancing in Heaven with her Grammy Ruth.
  In 15 weeks Grace brought more Love, Gratitude, Joy and Laughter to our lives than a whole lifetime ever could. We are so honored and proud she chose to share her time with us.  Grace touched so many lives in such a brief time.
My heart is filled with gratitude and love for every moment I carried her,  every secret conversation I shared with her, Every heartbeat I got to hear, every flutter only I got to feel, for every reminder that she lived inside of my belly.
Until we carry you in our arms our sweet Angel Baby, you are forever carried in our hearts.  

Thank-you to all who have taken the time to visit Grace's page.
Please take the time to light a candle in memory of all the little Angel Babies lost to soon, but forever in our hearts.




Our Precious Baby Girl
 
We didn't have to look into your eyes
to fall in Love with you,
We didn't have to hear your cry
to know you loved us too.
We didn't need to hold your hand
to cherish you always.
Within my womb we shared
our hearts.
You touched our souls,
you sweetened our spirits,
you gave us memories we will
always hold dear.
Our hearts ache since you departed too soon.
But a Mother's Love doesn't
end with death,
for you are our child and
our love is forever yours.


 I would like to extend my Deepest Gratitude to
my Family and Friends for all their Love and Support,
everyone at the Wellness Center (what would I do without you),
the Nurses and Doctors at BC Women's. Special thanks to Dr. Dina Bloomenthal, and everyone at HW Flesher for their support and happiness for me.




We long to feel the weight of you,
to welcome you home,
with kisses on silky round cheeks.
Instead our arms ache with the
weight of your absence,
the empty places that were meant for you
to grow into.
Our love for you will last an eternity
our hopes and dreams now carried
on the fragile wings of each Butterfly passing,
compelling us to pause,
to savour each moment.
Each flutter in our hearts
your wings.
All our hopes and dreams
now carried on Butterflies.

MY MOM IS A SURVIVOR

My mom is a survivor,
Or so I have heard it said.
But I can hear her crying
When all others are in bed.

I watch her lay awake at night
And go to hold her hand.
She doesn't know I am with her,
To help her understand.

But like the sands upon the beach
That never wash away,
I watch over my surviving mom,
Who thinks of me each day.

She wares a smile for others.
A smile of disguise.
But through heavens open door
I see tears flowing from her eyes.

My mom tries to cope with my death
To keep my memory alive.
But to anyone who know her,
Knows, it's her way to survive.

As I watch over my surviving mom
Through heavens open door,
I try to tell her
Angels protect me forevermore.

I know that doesn't help her,
Or ease the burden she bears.
So if you get a chance, talk to her
And show her that you care.

For no matter what she says.
No matter what she feels...
My surviving mom has a broken heart...
That time won't EVER HEAL!
