another angel byrd baby

Now is not your time, little one
Though it seemed your life had just begun.
I've learned before about these things
Sometimes even the tiniest angels get their wings.
It's difficult to know you're still inside me
But our third child you never will be.
It's so hard to grieve your loss
You're the second angel baby we have lost.
Yes, you have a brother or sister awaiting you
Somewhere up above in the Heavens so blue.
And I too will join you someday, you see
When God decides to send for me.
Now is not your time, little one
But you will live on in my heart, sweet daughter or son.

i know it's been a while since i've posted and i hate to start up again with this one. earlier this week i found out i was pregnant and the very next day i found out that i'm losing the baby. this post may be a bit premature, however the numbers from my test results were extremely low and i've been there before...i know what the numbers mean. i found this poem on the internet and couldn't believe how accurately it fit into our lives. this little angel baby will join our first angel baby in Heaven...i guess God wanted a little playmate for him or her. we are beside ourselves with the news but our new year's resolution was to be joyful always, pray continually, and give thanks in ALL circumstances. God is just making sure that we're gonna hold to that. and we have to, it's the only way we can get through. we just ask for your prayers through the process. love you guys.

update: just wanted to let everyone know that the results came back today and confirmed that we are, in fact, losing the baby. again, we could really use your prayers during this difficult time.

isn't it so crazy that we have four byrd grandbabies here on earth with us and four byrd grandbabies up in heaven? i often wonder what sex they are, we think both of ours were probably girls. thank you for encouraging us all to be joyful in even things like this. God is faithful. He doesn't change. thank Him for that. love you sister.

I am sooooooooooooo sorry to hear about your loss and in return a loss for words during this hard and sad time!I will have to tell you sometime the story about Andrew possibly being a twin that we will never know about until our "big" day! Praise for the ones we do have here on earth that are so precious & remember to enjoy every minute of them. Only God has the answers to our hard questions!Sending loving thoughts & prayers your way!!!!!! :) (((((Hugs)))))
