My Precious Little Niece

Last week tragedy struck my family when my sisters baby was stillborn just days before her due date. There was a knot in the umbilical cord. She was 9 lbs 2 oz, 20.5 inches and an absolutely gorgeous little angel. I'm posting her obituary because I feel that her momma said it all the best.

Our precious baby girl....

After a long 9 months of waiting, you finally entered this world, already an angel. We were blessed with the opportunity to see you and hold you in our arms. Unfortunately for us you had already moved on to live with Jesus and the other Angels. For now our hearts are broken and we may not ever understand why you had to leave us so soon, but we want you to never forget how much we love you and will miss you every single day of our lives.

We have no doubt that you are being very well taken care of and loved by the many family members who have gone before and we know you will be waiting for us when we get there.

Marlo will be greatly missed by her Father Tyler Wilson, Mother Monica Wilson, her big sister Olivia Wilson and her special little buddy "Tristen", Grandfather Wesley Wilson, Grandmother Carol Wilson, Grandfather Rodney Schultz, Grandmother Carol Schultz, and many, many Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and Friends.


And because her daddies only wish was that everyone could see what a beautiful baby she is...

O Angela, I'm so sorry. I know I've already said it but reading what Monica wrote just broke my heart for you and your family all over again. I hope that the services went well. I know that when something tragic happens it takes time to heal. I will continue to keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm sorry to hear about your neice. I can't imagine how heartbreaking that would be. It really hits home with me right now, considering I'm due on Monday. Your family is in my prayers.

I was reading this today while I was at Starbucks taking a break from work...and tears just started rolling down my face. I'm so sorry to hear about your niece...I pray that your family will have comfort during this extremely difficult time. I can't think of anything harder to go through than the loss of a child.
