One year ago today, my life changed for the better. A beautiful little bundle of joy was given to me. Yes, she had challenges to face. Yes, she was a little "different" from other babies. But she was MY baby - soft, warm, cuddly, and wonderful. I was one very proud momma with a very proud husband and 2 very proud big sisters. Gabby was to be the final piece to the puzzle that is our family. And I was ready to be her advocate for many, many years.
Life changed on November 20, 2009 also. God decided Gabby was needed in Heaven and He took her home. Though I cannot truly understand, I am at peace with giving her back to Him and know she is in the best place any baby/child/adult could ever be. I have no doubt that in some way, today, she is celebrating her birthday up there with the angels and all the other little ones who are with her.
Happy birthday, sweet girl. Mommy loves you and misses you so much. But one day, I'll be there with you and we can celebrate many more birthdays together. These tears that are streaming down my face will be gone, and happiness will be all we ever know. Thank you, Gabby, for all you taught me and so many others.
In loving memory...
Gabrielle "Gabby" Rae
