This was written in memory of all the children on my website who have lost their battles here on earth in hopes to raise more awareness to childhood disease and get others
to help in the fight for better cures in their memory.

Over TheRiver and Though The Woods To Grandmothers House We Go...Dedicated to All Grandparents grieving the loss of a
Granddaughter or Grandson.
Over the river...
And through the woods...
To Grandma and Grandpa's
House we go...
Oh, if only it were that simple now...
But we know there is still a path to our place...
Maybe..over the clouds and thru the skies...
For nothing can seperate us..not even space.
Oh, how I remember you would run to me,
And climb upon my knee,
Rocking in the rocking chair,
It was just you and me.
We remember how you would hold our hands...
As we walked along at the same pace...
Just the two or three of us...
With smiles upon our face.
We remember reading stories...
From 'Good Night Moon'
To 'Green Eggs and Ham'...
Never knowing it would end soon.
I remember you were my baking buddy...
Oh...the messes we would make...
you would lick the batter from the bowl and spoon,
And eat the icing off our cake.   :)
I remember you loved to fish...
Just Grandpa and you....
It didnt matter if you caught fish or not...
It was so much fun for you two!
We remember we would kiss it and make it better...
Whenever you would get hurt and cry...
But this was something we could not fix...
Oh how we wish we didnt have to say goodbye.
But, the days still go on....
As we think of you and pray...
And will always remember you..
With each passing day.
We will look to the stars...
And we will look to the moon...
And tell you we love you...
And we will see you soon.
Please God...if you listening...
could you please watch over us...
And all grieving  grandparents...
Comfort us in our double grief...
its so hard to see our child in pain...
and not be able to help....
its so hard grieving the loss of our grandchild...
who we miss more and more each day...
Please give us strength, courage, love, and
faith in you...to see us through
day by day...
month by month...
year by year...
and especially today....
On this very special Grandparents Day.

Please be patient with the slow load...
Grandparents and grandchildren,
Together they create a chain of love
Linking the past,
With the future.
The chain may lengthen,
But it will never part.
Yes....there is still a path to Grandma and Grandpas house...
I know..because I can feel you here...
And your infectious smile still lights up the room...
Just like it always did...and always will...
each day throughout the year.
