A member of the church we go to sent me this letter. I was sooo touched by this letter so I copied it to add it to her remembrance album. Ribbons are all from Michael's I think. PP is K&Co, cs is Bazzill and I also used Rhonna flourish stamps. The following journaling is written on the backside of the page and reads: “A member of the church at Trinity Lutheran sent this letter to us in the mail. It is as though it is from Ava's perspective…her telling us what her life is like now in Heaven, and that she is okay. I was very touched and moved by the letter. Even though I cry when I read it, the words bring me much relief and comfort knowing that she is in the best of hands…God's! Andrea (Ava's Mama).The following is what the letter (poem) reads: ”Mommy, you held me close inside for just a little while- When you rubbed your belly, I could always feel you smile. And, Oh! How loved and cherished I felt when Daddy would come home. ‘Cause he would hug us very tight- we were his very own. But one day I heard the Savior calling- he was calling me. I know, for I had never heard such a glorious sound! I knew I had to go! When my little spirit yielded to Him, and I left this imperfect place, I turned around to look, and then, Mommy, I saw your face.I saw in you what God saw, when He took me by the hand- A women of faith- courageous and strong–who would trust Him with this plan. I didn’t want to leave you, Mom- my baby heart was torn. But God said it was best this way; that into Heaven I be born. When I opened my eyes in glory, Mommy, guess who I did see? It was Him, Mom! It was Jesus! And he was smiling right at me! He said you and Daddy have broken hearts, but He would see you through. Then He took me in His arms, Mom, and said that I look so much like you.And Daddy, my sweet Daddy, how I loved to hear your voice. I know of any little girl, I would have been your choice. I wish your arms could have held me tight; that you could have bounced me on your knee…Jesus told me you're a man of God, Dad, and with you He is very pleased.He said that you would stand strong and bold in this time of desperate grief. That you would hold on to Heaven's promise, and not to give into disbelief. Jesus really loved you Dad, and He really loves me too. He said He would bounce me on His knee if I really wanted Him to!He said you wouldn't ever forget me as time goes by and by. And another thing- I almost forgot! He sadi I'm the “apple of His eye”. He said I will never shed a tear, or get sick, or suffer life's pain. And, oh, Mom and Dad, the most wonderful news - He said we'll be together again!So, Mommy and Daddy, I must go now, ‘cause Jesus wants to show me around. This is the most magnificent place - with wonderous sights and smells and sounds! I see angels and mansions and streets of gold; I drank from the River of Life. And the radiant glory of Jesus - He’s the only source of light.My tiny heart will always hold memories of my short time with you. Oh, Mommy and Daddy, I just can't explain what your faith in God can do. Hold onto Him - never let him go! He'll give you joy that will never end. And always remember, I'll be O.K. -I'm with Jesus, my bestest friend.Love, Baby Ava Noel
