When I found out I was pregnant with Olivia I was really scared having lost Tyler the year before. I
had my 3 month scan and all was well, I ask the nurse what the chances were of me losing my baby
again and she said I would be very unlucky for something to happen again. Two weeks later i recieved
a call from the mat unit saying I needed to go in as my blood results showed high risk of Downs
Syndrome, I cryed all night as I knew in my heart something was wrong. The next day I had to go in
for a scan where they found that my baby Olivia had already passed away, I was 14 weeks pregnant
this time. I has to take medication to end the pregnancy, the next day it was all over, I had given
birth to a lifeless little soul and could not believe what had happenend. I thought I must be very
unlucky as that nurse had said. Turns out Olivia had chromosome disorder called Edwards Syndrome and
would not have lived past her 1st birthday had she survived. Another baby with the angels, when will
my luck change?

Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett

"Happy Birthday Olivia"
It's sure to be the best one yet,
Though you left us here behind.
Did you think that we'd forget?

Your cake this year, will surely be,
A beauty to behold.
With the icing made of Silver,
And the candles made of Gold.

Yes, your birthday in Heaven,
Will be such a grand affair.
And I know you'll look so lovely,
With a halo in your hair.

The Angels will come from everywhere,
To sing your birthday song.
And I know they'll be so happy,
That you've joined, God's Happy Throng.

No I can't send a card this year,
Or give a gift so fine.
So I'll just send a special prayer,
To that wonderful Daughter of yours.

Special Little Spirit - by Unknown Author

"You're a Special Little Spirit," the all great Master said,
As he gently caressed the hair of the Little Spirit's Head.
"You need to go to Earth to spend some time, you know,
A place I send most Spirits to be tested, to learn, to grow.


The Little Spirit, in sadness, slowly bowed her head,
And from her eye a tear did steal and down her cheek it shed.
"Don't you fret now little one, I won't let you stay too long,
I'll bring you back to help me here, you'll hardly know you've been gone.
You're my choicest Little Spirit, you're the apple of my eye."
And he wiped the tear and gently kissed His Little Spirit good-bye.


"I'm back," the Little Spirit whispered, as she climbed onto her Master's knee,
And the Master said, "I told you, you would not be long away from me."
And then, the Lord, He noticed still another tear welled in her eye.
"Why are you so sad, Little Spirit, whatever should make you cry?"

"I'm glad I'm back," the Spirit said, "but Master you must surely know,
When your Angel came to get me, I didn't want to go.
I know you said you needed me and that I'd be gone the shortest while,
But Lord, couldn't I have had a little longer earthly trial?"


The Master let the Little Spirit slip down from His knee,
He firmly took the little hand and said, "come walk with me."
The Little Spirit and his Lord walked slowly hand in hand,
As the Master explained His special part in the great and marvellous plan.

"Now Lord, I don't mean to argue, I understand you need me home.
But I left in such a hurry, I left everyone hurting and so alone.
I didn't let my earthly parents know how much I loved them so.
I was much too small to tell them, Lord, how will they ever know?
They feel they've been cheated, and in a way so do I.
Not getting to share any more than we did, how can I ever tell them why?"

"Little Spirit, I know your heart is heavy with the message you need to share.
But you need not worry anymore, I'll watch over your loved ones there.
I'll send them loving comfort as a strong and helping hand.
I'll content and give peace to their aching hearts, so they will understand.


The Little Spirit looked up at her Master and said "thank you for explaining it to me.
And could you please tell them I'm safe and happy and that someday they'll be here with me."

"Yes," said the Lord with a smile and a nod, "I'll tell them all that I can."
Then the others came to see the Little Spirit, as the Lord let go of her hand.
He said, "I'll tell them you're pure, as pure as Heaven's gold,
That I needed the warmth of your perfect soul to keep Heaven from getting cold."

Best Angel Friends - by Unknown Author

A beautiful little Angel showed up to Heaven's gates
Confused and unknowing the plan that for her awaits.
Then another little Angel walked up and took her hand and said,
"Please don't be sad you left, you're in the Promised Land."
"I'm glad to be here but I do not think I was meant to go,
Perhaps there was a mistake, for my Mummy wanted me so."
The little greeting Angel gave a sweet smile and said,
"My Mummy wanted me too, but to Heaven I was led.
You see, we do not get to choose when on earth it's time to go.
He gave us life, love and joy and a Mother's womb to grow.
The Lord still needs new Angels to guide them down on earth.
To watch over, comfort them, and help them see their worth."
"Is there still a way that I can sleep in my Mummy's bed?"
The greeting Angel grinned and said, "that luxury you'll keep.
I visit my Mummy nightly and softly sing her to sleep."
The little Angel replied, "then I think I'll like it here.
I'll visit my Mummy nightly and weaken her pain and fears.
I love her and will keep her safe at night and in between,
And let her know with a sweet memory that she is still with me."
The greeting Angel gave his new friend a big hug and said,
"Until our Mummy's meet us here, let's be best Angel friends."
"Okay," said the new Angel, "that sounds good to me."
Then the Angels sat and played keeping their Mummy's in sight,
Humming the tunes to the song they would sing to their Mummy's tonight...

Good night from our Angels XX

Angel Babies - by Unknown Author

Over the rainbow, way up high,
Past fluffy white clouds the Angel babies fly.
With the sun's golden rays shining bright overhead,
Tumble and bumble they bounce out of bed.
Good morning, sun! The day has begun!
With delicate wings and sweet little faces,
They dance and they play and they race flying races.
Then, swooping and looping down through a cloud,
Or sliding and riding and singing out loud,
Wiggle and giggle, some fast and some slow,
The Angel babies fly to the earth down below.
Not everyone knows this, but truly it's true --
Little Angel babies have big jobs to do!
In gardens and meadows, they coax forth the flowers
With sunlight and love and gentle rain showers.
In fields and forests they spread soft white wings,
Sharing kindness and joy with all living things.
Small animal, babies in quiet green places
Rejoice in warm smiles from sweet Angel faces.
In backyards and baskets, on fireside rugs,
Small creatures are cuddles in soft Angel hugs.
Soon evening is bright with red-orange light,
And day slowly fades to make way for the night.
As good little children curl up in their beds,
The Angels bring sweet dreams to young sleepyheads.
Then the sound of a horn only Angels can hear
Calls out to them all -- here and there, far and near.
It beckons them back from wherever they roam,
Work is done for the day! Now it's time to go home.
Blinking and winking, bright stars in the sky
Twinkle and shine as the Angels fly by -- so softly singing a sweet Lullaby.
Yawning and stretching, they climb in their beds.
Cloud blankets warm bodies, cloud pillows rest heads.
Snuggled in tight with the moon shining bright
Sleep tight, sweet dreams, good night.

Good night Olivia, Angel baby, Sleep Tight xxx

Heartbreak .......................by Janet Gilmour

I'm going to tell you something,
Hope you'll never have to know.
I'll tell you how a heart can break,
With constant tears in flow.

I lost my baby girl you see,
An Angel in my eyes.
God chose to take her hand one day,
And led her to the skies.

But please, do not forget my child,
She was a person too,
And forever she will live,
Inside of me and you.

So please don't ever tell me,
That time will heal the pain.
Because not even time,
Can bring her back again.

Just tell me, she is happy,
In that land way up above.
She's snuggled up in Angels wings,
All wrapped up in Mummy's love.

Joanne Mitchell February 24, 2009

Friendship is a priceless gift
That can't be bought or sold,
But its value is far greater
Than a mountain made of gold.

For gold is cold and lifeless,
It cannot see nor hear,
And in your times of trouble,
It is powerless to cheer.

It has no ears to listen,
No heart to understand.
It cannot bring you comfort
Or reach out a helping hand.

So when you ask God for a gift,
Be thankful that he sends,
Not diamonds, pearls, or riches,
But the love of a real, true friend.

Thanks for everything you do
Love Always margo xxx

Angels in My Life



There have been Angels in my life...

While they haven't arrived with a blast

of trumpets or a rustle of wings,

I've known them just the same.

They performed their acts in Human guise...

sometimes borrowing the faces of family and friends,

sometimes, posing as well-meaning strangers...

You have known them too!

When just the right word was needed,

when a tiny act of kindness

made a great difference...


You are an in someone's life...

I'm glad you're in mine!
