No One Will Ever Know

To: Amelia, Elijah and Addison

Many a lonely moment;
Often a silent tear;
But always a beautiful memory
of THREE who were so dear.
Their memory is our keepsake
From which we shall never part
God has them in His keeping.
We have them in our hearts,
Friends may think we have forgotten
When at times they see us smile,
Little do they know the heartache
That our smile hides all the while.
We mourn for them in silence,
No one can see us weep
But many silent tears are shed
While others are asleep.
God gave us strength to fight it
And courage to bear the blow,
But what it meant to lose them
NO ONE WILL EVER KNOW
Author Unknown


I found this poem and it brought tears to my eyes. I think it speaks volumes as to what Scott and I feel but can't explain...as each day passes we long for our children that cannot be here with us and because of that we will never be the same. There is comfort in knowing they are in Heaven with God but no place is better than here on earth in our arms.
Amelia, Eli and Addy - you are in our thoughts forever and in our hearts for always. Love, Mommy

What a beautiful poem that expresses the pain and grief of parents who have lost a baby. Having had 2 miscarriages myself, I can somewhat relate to this poem and the way you must feel. It is a pain that never goes away completely, but does ease through time. Just remember that people are not forgetting about you. You continue to be in my thoughts and prayers. Your strength is very admirable!
