Remembering Anna Bella

(Angel of Wonder by NA Noel)
It has been a whole year
since I did a post about this..
Another year...
Another year...
Hard to believe..

Today our little angel,
 Anna Bella,

would have been 6 years old.

I often wonder
 what she would be like today

and picture her much like the angel above.

When she was born
 she looked a lot like her older sister.

This little angel appears to be
a combination
 of all 3 sisters.

What a beauty she would have been.

It is always hard to lose a child.

Some of you know this first hand,

some of you
could not begin to imagine it

happening to your family.

There is a whole different level of loss

when you lose a grandchild,

the child of your child.

Your heart aches

for your loss and

for your child's

loss.

When you lose a child,

your life is forever altered.

There is always a little piece of you that is missing..

a piece that somehow slipped away

and leaves an aching void.

I can't imagine how someone with no faith

carries on with life when they lose a child.

I can't imagine thinking that I would

never see that little one again.

As for me, my hope is in the Lord.

I know that someday we will all be

reunited again

and our family

will be whole.

Rest in peace our little Anna Bella.

We love you so.

Nana
