To our little boy.......
You were our first born, and our first memory of being parents. The time we hoped for so much turned
out to be so little, but I still remember it like it was yesterday.
On 21/11/02, Mummy called the hospital as she didn't feel well, she called me at work also. I came
straight to the hospital where I met mummy, to be told that you couldn't wait any longer, even
though you were only six months.
The next few hours seemed to go in slow motion. Mummy was so brave and I was so very proud of her,
even though she was so scared. As the hours passed, we realised that all was not well.
Matthew, you were born 21/11/02, such a perfect little boy in every way, its just that your time
meant you couldn't survive. The nurses at the hospital let you stay with mummy and daddy that
night.....even though you were gone, it was the first night I can say, very proudly, we spent as a
family, and its a night I'll treasure forever.
Today, things are a lot different. You have two beautiful sisters, Lucy and Charlotte. Lucy was born
at a similar time as you, but the doctors had given her special medicine weeks before she was born
that helped her survive. Charlotte was born perfectly.
Everyday I look at my girls, I see you, feel you, and want you to be back in our lives. I know that
you are looking down on them and looking out for them. Lucy says that you are Jesus' little helper
and even though I'm not his best friend at the minute, I totally agree.
We love you, miss you and will always remeber you........until we meet again,
Rest in peace my angel
Daddy, Mummy, Lucy and Charlotte
Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett
"Happy Birthday Matthew"
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 Son of yours.
Born Still - by Unknown Author
Do you know how hard it is
To hold a baby who doesn’t cry?
Do you know how hard it is
To tell that baby Goodbye?
Do you know how hard it is
To look at an empty bed?
Knowing your child should be there
Resting her sleepy head?
Do you know how hard it is
Feeling you’re to blame?
And no matter what they tell you
You'll always feel the same.
Do you know the heartache
Knowing she's gone for good?
And feeling that you didn't
Do all the things you could.
Do you know how hard it is
To hear that it's Gods will?
Do you know the emptiness
When your child is born still?
Unfortunately we do XX

Lots of Love, Mummy, Daddy, Lucy and Charlotte
Having had a premature baby ourselves we know the difficulties they face. Our daughter was also born at 26 week, somehow she managed to fight and grew into a beautiful little girl only to loose her life to cancer aged 4 years, we understand the pain you feel and know there are no words which will take that away, but please know you will be in my thougts each day.
So sad to hear little matthew gone to sleep. Our deepest sympathy goes out to your family. Heart aches everyday and all you can do is picture them. No one knows how it feels until it has happened to them. Sorry to hear him go.
His Journey's Just Begun
His Journey’s Just Begun
Don't think of him as gone away,
his journey's just begun.
Life holds so many facets,
this earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting,
from the sorrows and the tears.
In a place of warmth and comfort,
where there are no days and years.
Think how he must be wishing,
that we could know today...
How nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.
And think of him as living
in the hearts of those he touched...
For nothing loved is ever lost
and he was loved so much!
Our grandson
Thank you Matthew for looking down on us when we need it most.
I believe in angels and you are the most special of all.
