A poem for Leigh Ann
April 25, 2005
Dear LeighAnne,
Some times I look out my window and I want to cry.
Trying to understand this young life taken from us makes me ask, "Why?"
But, then a comfort and a peace comes over me.
And I think how selfish I must be.
How could I wish to have back from God what was already his?
How could I wish for your angel to return to life the way it is?
It is so hard to comprehend, through our sorrow and pain.....
What is our loss is the Heavenly Father's gain.
Only a mother can understand....
What it must be like to never be able to hold your babies hand.
To never be able to hear him say....
"Mommy, I love you today."
But, we must not be sad for ourselves, because that is not the way God wants it to be.
God wants to tell you now dear LeighAnne, "Micah is with me."
God wants Micah for him now, although we may not understand.
But, be comforted by this, it is now the Great One who holds your little boys hand.
So, if you are ever looking out your window and feel a little blue.
Just remember, he is not gone, only waiting for you.
I love you all so much.
Love, Eden
