Lit by Claire Roadley 31st July 2010
I heard you crying yesterday - And felt your heart send loveSo I’m sending you this message now from Heaven up aboveYou're wondering if I’ll celebrate my 1st birthday way up HereI know you're missing me today - I feel your essence nearGod planned a special day for me - He told me with a winkHe’d ordered me a special cake (it’s angel food I think)I’m getting lots of hugs from God - He's really good at thatAnd every time I walk by He gives my head a patI’ve made soo many friends you see ... We play and laugh and singWe ride our bikes and play and jump rope And sleep in Angel wingsWe’ll have our cake and ice cream, And open gifts surpriseBut we don’t blow out the candles ... Instead they light the skiesThinking of you baby girl on your special day. How we wish you were here to celebrate it with us. We will be in Spain with Nana, Oupa, Di and Piesy on the 11th and will try our best to celebrate what was the happiest day of our lives last year. We love and miss you angel girl xxx
