3 years ago tomorrow my niece grew wings. Today is the day she became an angel but tomorrow is when she grew her wings.

It is a very hard time for all involved both directly and indirectly.

My beautiful SIL and I are close and were even closer as we were both pregnant at the same time. She is godmother to my son and they have a very special bond.

She has since had another child and it is very hard to think that if my beautiful niece hadnt passed that he may not have been here.

However, to my darling Jemima...although we never met in person, you are truly loved. I miss you! I miss what we could have had. I miss the cousin for my children. I miss the fun, the laughs and the mischief I know you would have gotten into.

My darling girl, I know you are looking down on all of us and especially your parents and your 3 siblings, but remember that a day doesnt go by when you arent thought of or a special prayer is said.

The day you left us, the big guy got a special angel.

LOVE YOU and I miss you!

Happy 3rd heavenly birthday Jemima.

You are a wonderful person to be remembering your nieces birthday, I know how hard it is on the outside looking into the grief your SIL is going through, my nephew passed away 5 1/2 years ago and like you often think of him and what he is doing now.

As also a mum of two angels I know how important from your SIL view that her daughter is not forgotten and lives on inside all of her families and thought of often, I know my worse fear is my girls to be forgotten.

I hope you all have a peacceful day tomorrow remembering a special little girl.
