Today our sweet
ANNA BELLA
would be
16 years old.
WHERE have the years gone?
We held her for moments
in our arms but she is
forever in our heart.
Would she get her driver's license today
and take her friends for rides
one by one?
Would she have a special "boy"
in her life that would make her
shyly smile and say
"No, Nana! He is NOT my boyfriend"....
Would she be bucking
Mom and Dad
about curfew and screen time?
Sadly, we will never know.
We do believe that she is
in Heaven with other
angel babies sharing
sweet, happy moments.
That is what keeps us going.
On earth
she would be nestled in between
three special girls
The would champion her causes
and fight over who used the
last bit of shampoo.
You are loved and missed,
ANNA BELLA!
Hold every child/grandchild
tightly because you never
know how long they will
be yours -they are just
in the world
on loan.
~Blessings~
Happy birthday, angel girl.

That was a lovely tribute, Diana. Judging by her sisters, I'm sure she would have been an incredible young woman by now. -Jenn

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday in heaven to sweet Anna Bella. May her memory be a blessing.
ReplyDeleteIf she was anything like my girls, now in their forties, she would probably be anxious to get that driver's license. Happy Birthday, sweet girl! Your Nana obviously loves you very much.

Hugs to you and yours. I think it's the not knowing and missing all those special milestones that hurts. She would definitely be a beautiful and special young lady, I'm sure. My heart goes out to all who lost their child. Someday I'll meet my oldest sister - she was stillborn and Mom never got to see her. I find that so very sad. Praying for comfort for you and your family.
ReplyDeleteSending BIG HUGS and PRAYERS your way as you remember your Anna Bella on her Heavenly Birthday!
ReplyDeleteOh goodness, Diana. Sending you a special hug on this day. My youngest daughter is 34 weeks pregnant today with my first grandbaby - a girl. ♥ All of your granddaughters are stunning. Happy heavenly birthday to your Anna Bella.♥
ReplyDeleteHappy Heavenly birthday to your sweet Anna Bella. This would have been a milestone birthday and I could see her going to the DMV with the three sisters cheering her on for her first DL. Sending a big hug to you my sweet friend. xoxo

ReplyDeleteI can't imagine the heartache of this loss, but I am so thankful that heaven's promised reunion is a hope to hold onto!
