Willie was my first born grandchild and the love of my life. He died with his Mummy, my only daughter, in an accident which his younger brother and sister survived.

Willie lived his short life to the full. He was an adorable little daredevil who could ride a mini motorbike with skill, do stunts on his bicycle and do all the things happy active children do. He loved his wee brother and sister and was Nanny's "little angel boy"

I am truly grateful for every precious moment we shared, and the joy of having him for six short years will forever outweigh the pain of losing him

For you my angel xxx

Like a comet
Blazing 'cross the evening sky
Gone too soon

Like a rainbow
Fading in the twinkling of an eye
Gone too soon

Shiny and sparkly
And splendidly bright
Here one day
Gone one night

Like the loss of sunlight
On a cloudy afternoon
Gone too soon

Like a castle
Built upon a sandy beach
Gone too soon

Like a perfect flower
That is just beyond your reach
Gone too soon

Born to amuse, to inspire, to delight
Here one day
Gone one night

Like a sunset
Dying with the rising of the moon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon

For you Willie xx

What kind of place would heaven be with all its streets of gold,
if all the souls, that dwell up there like yours and mine, were old?
How strange would heaven’s music sound when harps begin to ring,
if children were not gathered ‘round to help the angels sing.
The children that God sends to us are only just a loan,
He knows we need their sunshine to make the house a home.
We need the inspiration of a baby’s blessed smile
. He doesn’t say they’ve come to stay, just lends them for a while. Sometimes it takes them years to do the work for which they come. Sometimes in just a month or two our Father calls them home.
I like to think some souls up there bear not one sinful scar.
I love to think of heaven as a place where children are.

~*~To Where You Are~*~

~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
Who can say for certain
Maybe you're still here
I feel you all around me
Your memory's so clear

Deep in the stillness
I can hear you speak
You're still an inspiration
Can it be (?)
That you are my
Forever love
And you are watching over me from up above

Fly me up to where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile to know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

Are you gently sleeping
Here inside my dream
And isn't faith believing
All power can't be seen

As my heart holds you
Just one beat away
I cherish all you gave me everyday
'Cause you are my
Forever love
Watching me from up above

And I believe
That angels breathe
And that love will live on and never leave

Fly me up
To where you are
Beyond the distant star
I wish upon tonight
To see you smile
If only for awhile
To know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

I know you're there
A breath away's not far
To where you are

~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~

♥♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥♥~Friend~♥♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥♥
Let me come in where you are weeping friend
And let me take your hand.
I, who have known a sorrow such as yours,
can understand.
Let me come in,
I would be very still beside you in your grief;
I would not bid you to cease your weeping friend
Tears bring relief.
Let me come in... and hold your hand.
For I have known sorrow such as yours,
And understand...

On your 4th Anniversary

Willie my darling, Nanny misses you so much. Your beautiful dark eyes, your lovely olive skin, your sweet little voice, gorgeous smile and every little thing about you. But most of all I miss the hugs and cuddles and the knowledge that you loved me uncondionally.

I so much miss our night time chats, holding you in my arms while we slept and waking up to your cute little face looking into mine in the mornings. And I miss our secrets............I loved it when you wispered back to me "I love you all the way to the moon and back a million times too Nanny"

I still have all the special things you gave me, and remember with so much love and pride the day you wrote "Willie loves Nanny".

Thank you for being my first precious grandchild, and for all the wonderful times we shared.

Take care of your Mummy and be there waiting when my time comes my darling.

I Love You Baby xxxoooxxx

Grace and Jimmy love and miss you very much too

Last picture

Remember the night Mummy had all her hair shaved off sweetheart? And you, Gracie and Jimmy had your hair coloured to raise money for sick people?? You looked so cute with your bright red hair, but were upset that Mummy had hers shaved off weren't you.

In the last picture ever taken of you all that night you were snuggled up to Mummy......just two days later you were both gone. It comforted Nanny so much when she saw that picture, especially as I had you placed forever in your Mummy's arms.

I miss you both so much my darling boy, and will welcome when my time finally comes and we can be together again. Take care of your beautiful Mummy and come visit Nanny whenever you want xxxx

REMEMBERING YOU TODAY AND ALWAYS

We want to always remember
the beautiful life you lived
and keep alive the memories we have
through remembering what you did

For you're so special to all of us
a wonderful person indeed
your love, laughter and warmth
reflected a heart that believed

Just in the everyday things we do
we remember your faith and love
in the words you spoke to help us through
is a continued reminder for us

Although we miss you so very much
we know we'll see you once more
for this is the hope we have in god
being re-united in the lord

And as we gather we'll continue to share
special times we went through
for these are memories that warm our hearts
as we honour the memory of you.

I know that i went to early
And that god took me too soon
But sometimes angels are needed
To fly over that silvery moon

For Willie xxx

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.
