A Child Loaned
"I'll lend him to you, for a little time,
This dear child of mine." the Lord said.
"For you to love him while he lives,
And mourn for when he's dead.
It may be six or seven years
Or twenty-two or three.
But will you, till I call him back
Take care of him for Me?
He'll bring his charms to gladden you
And should his stay be brief,
You'll have his lovely memories
As solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay
Since all from Earth return,
But there are lessons taught down there
I want this child to learn.
I've looked this wide world over
In my search for teacher's true,
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes,
I have selected you.
Now will you give him all your love,
Nor think the labor vain,
Nor hate me when I call him back,
or cry: it's too much pain?"
I took his words to heart and quickly replied,
"Dear Lord, Thy will be done,
For all the joy this child shall bring,
For the risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may,
And for the happiness we've known,
Forever grateful stay.
But should the angels call for him,
Much sooner than we planned,
We'll brave the bitter grief,
And try to understand.

Like Snowflakes - by Sue Young
Like snowflakes on a sunny day,
Like tissue on flame,
Your time with us emphemeral
You left just as you came
You crept into our consciousness,
Left handprints on our hearts,
As your future turned into your past
An end with scarce a start.
Like blossom blown from Spring-time trees,
Or dew dried by the sun,
Your chance to run life's marathon
Stopped at the starting gun.
You touched our lives so briefly
You looked then turned away,
Yet the impact of your presence
Stays with us every day.
Like fantasies flee from the truth,
Or dreams fragment each morn,
As hopes become reality,
Your sun set upon its dawn.
But you were, and so you are,
Our child, our precious one,
Our baby cradled in our hearts,
Our stars, our moon, our sun
Like a snatch of divine harmony,
or fragrance in the air,
Or sunset greyed to darkness,
In your absence you're still there.
Well here we are 1 year later. It dosen't get any easier.It only gets harder every day that goes buy. I love you so much nathan, I wish I could hold you again and tell you that everything is going to be okay. I can only hope that you are happy, in heaven. I can't help to wonder if your okay. Mommy misses you so much, and I hold you in my heart every day. I let the whole world know what a wonderful boy you were here on earth. Your were so special to so many people. I miss everything about you, and on this day I will try to remeber the special life you brought to me. And not the sorrow of losing you. It will be very hard for all of us so close to you, to get past losing you. I can't say in enough words, what you mean to my life. I can say that you are my hero and true angel in heaven and there is not a moment that goes buy that I don't think of your beautiful smile, and long hugs, and your huge kisses. You are the best son that I could ask for. I'am so lucky to have been your mommy for the 8 years I did. I would never want to change a moment that we spent together. I LOVE YOU MOMMY.
But Jesus called the children to him and said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it."

Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett
"Happy Birthday Nathan"
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.

Thinking of you on your birthday Nathan
But that is nothing new
For no day dawns and no day ends
Without a thought of you.
We cannot send a birthday card,
Your hand we cannot touch,
But God will take our greetings
To the one we love so much.

Your Angel - by Teryl Seaman
It’s amazing what can truly happen,
How your life can be so grand;
When you give up trying on your own
And let an Angel hold your hand.
All the loneliness inside of you
Will completely disappear;
When you realize you’re not alone,
That your Angel is very near.
Your life will become more meaningful,
As well as totally rearrange;
You’ll be amazed at all that you can do,
At the blessings of the change.
You will be able to handle anything,
There is nothing you can’t face;
With your Angel there to lead you
Your entire life will fall in place.
Just give up trying on your own,
And allow your Angel to lead;
All of Heaven’s blessings will come to you,
Nothing else you’ll ever need.
No matter what you are called to do,
How simple or complex the task;
Your Angel will be there to show the way,
All you have to do is ask.
Don’t ever let yourself feel discouraged,
Feel this thought within your soul;
All the things you’ve ever dreamed of
Will become a reachable goal.
So let your Angel hold your hand,
Your life will be so complete;
Prepare to conquer the tasks of life,
There will be no battle you can’t defeat.
