A letter to William on his Angel day..
It's hard to believe that it's been 3 years since I last held you in my arms.I rember all so well the last moments that you were in my arms it was so sad and so sweet at the same time. It was in the wee hours just before dawn I woke up to your little sneeze. I new at that moment your time was short and I woke your Dad up I rember telling him that it was time to say goodbye. I started to panic and I wanted to do what any mother would do I tried to keep you here I soon realized that your last memories didn't need to be of me panicking and trying to stop your new journey so I gracefully held you in my arms and whispered sweet words of love and promised that I would live a righteous life so that I could be with you again. The last breath you took was much like your first beautiful and sweet.I love you very much William and I am forever grateful for the time you gave us to get to know you. You will always be my baby and in my heart for ever.I miss and love you every day.Thanks for choosing me as your mother.

Hello, visiting from SITS. Since there are no featured bloggers this week, I decided to check out the "Saucy Blogs" and found yours....and I am so glad I did. What a wonderful memorial letter to your blessed son. It was a beautifully written love song to him. I know he is watching down on all of you! Even though it must be difficult, thank you for sharing it with us! {hugs}
On a lighter note, I love your blog name and design...I will definitely be back!
Big hugs! You are such a special mother, woman, person! I am am so happy I "met" you... Here is to a wonderful 2009!

Here it is just after 8 am and I too am already having my special memories today. Then I thought of you and ran to your post. You get me all teary eyed.
Then I go to comment and look how late I am in wishing you a happy memory day. I love you and I am thinking of you alot this day.
Thank you for sharing your sweet, peaceful goodbye. I wish you peace today! {{hugs}}
My heart achse with you. I to had a sweet baby pass away 3 1/2 years ago. That loss leaves an empty spot in my heart. But as you say, and I to believe, families are eternal. And how grateful we can be for that! My motto has been, smile when I can, cry when I have to. Just make sure I'm smiling more than crying. have a good day.
Gorgeous layout and words, Jen. Big ((HUGS)) to you and your family. Happy Angel Day to William.
What a hard thing to go through, but the Lord knew you were strong enough. I know that day will come when you get to see your sweet William again and be able to raise him then.
Much Love to you and your family!

I am visiting from SITS and enjoyed your blog. My prayers of peace and comfort go out to you. You have made me want to do laundry - but first I must get my fur and diamonds - I just can't seem to remember where I have them stashed. I hope I haven't been robbed!!! Well I guess laundry will have to wait!!
Have a blessed New Year!!!
What a beautiful tribute to your William...
I've enjoyed perusing your sweet and sassy blog! I'll be back!
And, speaking of laundry (!), do you use the "Family Closet" idea that alot of larger families do?
I, as Momma of 5, use the system and is VERY helpful!
I have pix on my blog ... I just ramped the whole thang up a bit...
It's yesterday's post btw.
Again, thanks for being "SAUCY" and sweet!
