It's Sunday hello above I think you are or all around that star can’t say that I’ve not looked away a stray but I used to be Sunday’s child licking that gold star beside my name in school and every night I laid me down my soul what was that I didn’t know but didn’t want to die before I woke forsaken..no no I asked you to help me back then when I was ten with something bigger then I have known since put my hands out into the dark in my room with the closet I feared and asked just needed to know what to do and while I’m at the questioning I’ve been wondering about that angel I called Michelle you know she was special she was most for me a first big love and my prayer was big that day I know I’d faltered earlier and now I was in need all of a sudden I asked ..is that greed to take a child who was loved so dear this tear is all you gave to me in answer and still I ask how is this plan worked out I don’t mean any disrespect and I’m sure you know my heart is good believes in love and brotherhood and I appreciate all the little things you made for me to touch and I know one day beyond this time sense will make of me some semblance of what this time spent is meant to be until then just one thing for peace on earth goodwill to men could we get some help with this amen --- with thanks to serenity |

If you only know how I feel for you, for Michelle.... For the hurt in your lives. For the growth that you have seen... Helping with that last Amen... |

That's the hardest part -- that there simply are no answers at all, let alone easy answers that make sense to a human mind in a world where so many things are logical and linear in the way they happen. But know this, that there will be an answer, and one you can understand, either because it is finally placed in human terms, or because you have moved beyond those limitations. Patience....that's a hallmark of angels, as you know. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

(big hugggssssssss) I too wish I knew just how to help comfort your heart, as I can't imagine how the loss of a child can feel completely still growing up, dearest friend! (sad sigh) I send many angel hugs your way and know always Michelle loves you and will always be your little girl, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

With my job I have seen far to many children taken from us each one leaves a memory and mark on my heart. I can't imagine how hard this has been for you. Thank you for sharing, this is so heart touching. Bless you and best wishes. ~Angie |
