Through The Mothers Eyes: "I love you so much; mommy misses your smile, your laugh, and your cry. You will be in my heart until the day I die. I can't wait to see you when mommy comes your way. For God may let it be any day. You're my world, my land, and my sea. I wish God wouldn't have taken you from me. I loved and cherished every moment I had. You've done nothing but made me glad. I'll see you in a little while sweet child of mine; you'll be in my arms in a matter of time."
