An angel from the book of life wrote down our baby's birth. But when she closed the book she whispered, to beautiful for earth.
On February 8, 2005 our lives changed forever. That is the day that I gave birth to my 3rd son, unfortunately he never took a single breath. I need to share Sammie's Story so other's may see our son and get to know him a little bit also.
It's been nearly 4 years now since I lost my son Sammie. I worried that I would never feel happy again, never feel myself again. Luckily I was wrong. Although I do think about and miss Sammie every day, I do laugh and feel joy again, I worried I wouldn't. I am happy to report that time does make the pain a little duller. It will never be gone but I have learned how to live with this loss. I hope this gives other's hope.
Dave wrote this poem in Sam's memory.
A butterfly
brushed against my heart today.
his touch was brief and light
but I will feel his effect
for the rest of my life.
