Birthdays are a time for celebration
Not a time for tears
But what happens when the birthdays
No longer mark the years
A Birthday marks the moment
A spirit enters earthly life
To share its special love and joy
And learn from earthly strife
Before a spirit comes to us,
It knows when and how it must depart
It chose its path carefully,
We are honored from the start
The sadness we now feel on such a joyus day
Is longing for our loved one's touch
It's natural to feel this way
For even though the birthdays
No longer mark a spirit's stay
Love continues on forever
To touch us everyday
I hug my precious memories
Close to my heart
And honor my beloved spirit child
Who chose me from the start.

This wonderful poem was sent to me last year on Jeremy's Birthday by my daughter.

You were chosen as his mother from the very beginning. You were chosen to love and care for him and you did a great job in doing that. He was an outstanding person. We may not understand God's ways but I do believe that Jeremy is watching over you even now. You had the opportunity to hold and angel which many people do not get the chance to do.
What a beuatiful poem! Just to know is better than nothing. I can think of nothing worse. Death would be easier to accept. I love you sister and my prayers are with you. May God hold you close and comfort you. Praying always. . . . . . . .
