Today is my daughter's birthday. She is the only one of 7 children to survive. The other 6 ended in miscarriage. I am thankful to God every day for my daughter. It was a very devestating thing to go through losing my other children. God knew why this had to happen, and I have learned many things through the experience. If it wasn't for my faith in the Lord, I don't know if I would have been able to get through the grief process. Here is a poem that the Lord gave me to remember my children and to know that I will see them for the first time one day in heaven:
IN LOVING MEMORY
Kristina Ramirez Jordan
I didn’t get the chance to meet you
When to this earth you came
Your time here was all too short
You didn’t even get a name
You were here and gone before your time
It broke my heart to see you go
I would never get to hold you in my arms
And things about you I’d never know
With God’s help the pain has eased
But you are still in my heart and mind
And when to heaven one day I come
You’ll be one of the first I want to find
IN LOVING MEMORY OF:
