I will never forget the first little smile and the way she stretched her body as if she were going to wake up. She opened her eyes for a few seconds and went back to sleep. These are the few memories I have of MARIBELLE. Even though she wasn't awake each time I saw her I know she new I was there and felt nanny touching her, holding her hand and rubbing my hand across her head. She touched my soul and I wanted so much for her to become well inside and be able to come home. It just wasn't meant to be. But I know she will be keeping an eye on us as we live our life and make our way back to her one day. And what a wonderful day that will be when we are finally together and be able to baby her and spoil her as we would had if she could have stayed with us. Nannies love for you will never fade.
