To my sweet Malachi,
It has been a few days since you had to leave and I
love and miss you so much. You brought me so much
joy. As you grew inside of me, there were times I
thought you were going to kick my bladder out. I
couldn't laugh without running to the restroom and I
couldn't sleep without you doing what felt like
martial arts inside of me. When you were inside of me
I used to play a song for you before we would go to
sleep at night. Remember the words? "I receive it. I
receive life. I receive joy. I receive peace. I
receive all the things that you have for me and
now...now I can live." You are truly living right now
and you will live with Jesus forever. I will make
sure your memory lives on.
I had the opportunity to have you in my life for 3
days and I treasure every single moment I was given.
The days leading up to your birth, the doctors tried
to monitor you, but you kicked the monitor so hard
they kept having to start it over. I laughed to myself
because as small as you were, nobody could control
you. You proved to be a soldier and that's what you
are. When the doctor began delivering you, they told
me not to expect you to cry because of your age. Your
grandmommy told me not only were you crying, but you
came out breathing without any help and were swinging
that right fist as the nurses attempted to wrap you
up. They wrapped you up and you some how managed to
get that right fist back in the air to swing some
more. The fight in you reminds me of myself. They
brought you in to see me from a slight distance as
they continued to work on me and I noticed we both
were straining our necks to see each other. Again,
you had that right arm out, but this time it looked
like you were reaching in my direction. I got a
chance to hold your hand and your grip was so strong.
I got a chance to talk to you and everytime you heard
me you began kicking your legs. I even laid hands on
you and told you that you shall live and not die. You
are living. You had many people praying for you. Your
grandmommy and I had a chance to pray over the doctor
that was going to be doing your last procedure. When
we finished praying with him, the nursing staff had
tears in their eyes because they said nobody ever
offered to pray over the surgeon before surgery. Even
the nurses miss you. You have forever impacted the
lives of many and you will continue to do that.
Malachi, your first name was named after a prophet in
God's word and your middle name Ezekiel, was named
after a priest. You are royalty. You are my little
fighter and though you will be sleep in God's presence
for a little while, I know we will meet again in
Heaven. Your family loves you so much and they too
will see you again. We love you baby.
Love Mommy & Family

A big thanks from my heart to all of you who have left me encouraging words, left gifts for Malachi, lit candles or left a tribute. My son means the world to me and because I know I will get to hold him in Heaven, I am encouraged by his life. I will make it through because Jesus is strengthening me when I feel like giving up. I truly believe that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord Jesus. That is truly my hope. Thank you so much.
I love you
Malachi it has been a hard week without you. Sometimes it's like I can get through the day and then some days it's like the doctor just walked in all over again and told me you're gone. It's hard to believe. It's a lonely road. I want you to know that I would go through the pain all over again if I could just to see you, kiss you and hug you. I truly have no regrets. Your presence has taught me some invaluable lessons. Very hard lessons, but I have no regrets.
I Miss You
I know you are doing well. I just miss you so much. Lastnight I had such a hard night and I couldn't stop crying for nothing, but the Lord gave me just a little more strength to get through it. You are my motivation eventhough you're in the presence of the Lord. Your life will live on through my life. I love you Malachi.
I Got Through It
Dear Malachi. I thought I was going to be a wreck yesterday because that was the day I was due to have you. I was a little sad because I really want you here. Because I know that God's plan is perfect, I will be ok. I will never stop loving you and I will never stop missing you. The joy I have is knowing I will see you in Heaven. Not only that, I will hug and kiss you over and over. You are indeed a little man that came with a purpose and you fulfilled your purpose for the 3 days you were with me. All my love to you sweetie.
Why God Takes Little Children
When God calls little children
to dwell with Him above,
We mortals sometimes question
the wisdom of His love.
For no heartache compares with,
the death of one small child.
Who does so much to make our world,
seem so wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires of calling
the aged to His fold.
So He picks a rosebud
before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them,
and so He takes but few.
To make the land of heaven
more beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult
still somehow we must try.
The saddest word mankind knows
will always be Good-bye.
So when a little child departs,
we who are left behind,
Must realize God loves children.
ANGELS ARE HARD TO FIND!

For Malachi's Mommy
In a baby castle, just beyond your eye,
Your baby plays with angel toys that money cannot buy.
Who are you to wish him back into this world of strife,
No, play on your baby, he'll have eternal life.
At night when all is silent and sleep forsakes your eyes,
You'll hear his tiny footsteps come running to your side
His little hands caress you so tenderly and sweet,
You'll breathe a prayer and close your eyes and embrace him in your sleep.
Now you have a treasure that you rate above all others
You have known true glory,
You are still his mother.
