My beautiful princess Ella-Mae who is forever in my heart & always on my mind was sadly taken too
soon due to prematurity & RDS.
I had early on-set severe pre-eclampsia at 23 weeks & my baby girl had to be born by emergancy
classical c-sec at 25+2... the doctors at the hospital ruled Pre-eclampsia out at first as they said
that you don't generally get pre-eclampsia until 30 weeks.
My darling girl passed away in NICU at the tender age of 3 days.
I love & miss her with all my heart & she lives on in the hearts of her family.
I have been blessed with 2 beautiful brothers for Ella-Mae & she really looked after her mummy &
brothers Rowan nearly 2 & Ashton (A.J) 8 months as i was so lucky not to get pre-eclampsia again
despite having it severe & early on-set with Ella-Mae. Her baby brothers also both spent a week each
in SCBU ( my worst nightmare) but Ella-Mae ensure they came home.
My beautiful princess will always be remembered in our house, im just so sad that she is not with us
as she should be.
I love you my darling as i am forever your mummy as you are my baby girl.

FOR MY BABY GIRL... IT REALLY WARMS MY HEART TO KNOW THAT HER MEMORY LIVES ON.
lOVE TO ALL MY DEAR FRIENDS & NEW FOUND FAMILY & ALL THE PRECIOUS ANGELS OUT THERE.... PLEASE SAY HI
TO MY BABY GIRL.

What Makes A Mother

I thought of you and closed my eyes
And prayed to God today,
I asked, "What makes a Mother?"
And I know I heard him say:
A Mother has a baby,
This we know is true
But, God, can you be a mother
When your baby's not with you?

Yes, you can, he replied
With confidence in his voice,
I give many women babies,
When they leave it is not their choice.
Some I send for a lifetime,
And others for the day,
And some I send to feel your womb,
But there's no need to stay.

I just don't understand this God,
I want my baby here.

He took a breath,
and cleared his throat,
And then I saw a tear.
I wish I could show you,
What your child is doing Here...

If you could see your child smile
With other children and say,
"We go to earth to learn our lessons
of love and life and fear,
but My mommy loved me so much
I got to come straight here!"
I feel so lucky to have a Mom who had so much love for me,
I learned my lessons very quickly,
My Mommy set me free.
I miss my Mommy oh so much
But I visit her each day.
When she goes to sleep,
On her pillow is where I lay.
I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek,
And whisper in her ear,
"Mommy, Please don't be sad today,
I'm your baby and I am here"

So you see my dear sweet one,
Your children are okay.
Your babies are here in My home,
And this is where they'll stay.
They'll wait for you with Me,
Until your lessons there are through,
And on the day that you come home,
they'll be at the gates waiting for you

So now you see
What makes a Mother,
It's the feeling in your heart,
It's the love you had so much of
Right from the very start.
