From Mummy : This Precious little girl is my daughter, she was 2 and a half and the most amazing little girl ever - then again i would say that her mummy! words cannot discribe how much i love her and am going to miss her. she was....IS my world, my reason for getting out of bed every morning! i have no idea how im going to live every day without her. I want to tell everyone how she changed my life and how much she meant to me but if youre looking at this and you know me then you will know how i felt about her. She was a smiley, happy and cheeky girl, always coming out with things that would make me and her daddy smile. Dont get me wrong - it wasnt always easy and she wasnt always an angel - she could be an absoloute monkey but would think she could make everything ok with a cheeky grin and a "soweeee" but i love her none the less! she is THE most special, most precious thing in my life and i will never forget her.

From Daddy:

Dear Lyla,

Apologies for taking so long to write to you, but i wanted to make sure i wrote the right things. What are the right things? Firstly, im so proud of you, not just for fighting for 17 hours, but for everything you have accomplished within your little life. Your first words; sitting up, your giggles. Im so thankful for having you in my life. You are my life and soul, and i ache knowing i will not see you again; smell you; touch your delicate skin; kiss you; snuggle up with you; caress your beautiful locks, but i take comfort in knowing you will always be here in some way.

I will always remember everything you did, and you made me and Mummy feel. No-one will ever replace you, and i promise to try and look after Mummy for you, how ever hard it gets. If you see me and Mummy crying, its not because we are sad, but because we love you sooooo much.

Now sleep tight my ickle princess, and dont be too much of a cheeky monkey for Nanna Elsie. Give her a big kiss from me, and remember to eat your fruit and not too much chocolate.

For now, cheerio Ellie. Your smile with always be in my dreams, and you will always be in my heart.

"Night Night, Dont let the bed bugs bite, see you in the morning, Love You, MWAH"

3 long years....

Hello Angel,
I cant believe its been 3 long years since I saw your beautiful face. I have been feeling really sad in the last few days but Ive tried to remember you with a smile rather than a tear. Alot of time has passed but how I feel about you hasnt, I still love and miss you so much! We spent yesterday with your whole family doing things you loved to do (but you know that because Im sure you were watching down on us!!) Daddy and I deal with things very differently so we argue lots but one thing we have in common is our love for our gorgeous little girl!

Three long years

Hello my precious baby girl.
I just wanted to pop by and tell you that I love you so, so much. I can hardly believe that its been three long years since I saw you, I miss you more than I ever could of imagined. To celebrate the anniversary of your angel day today, we will all be together as usual - Mummy, Daddy & Jude are coming over and we're going to your favourite country park - I hope Jude loves it as much as you did and I know that you'll be with us. Tonight we're going to send you up our messages of love so make sure you look out for the sky lanterns with smiley faces!
I don't know what else to say my Angel except that you will always be Nanny's number one Lady Lyla. xxxx

"Remember Me" (song by Deanna Edwards)

Remember me whenever you see a sunrise,
Remember me whenever you see a star,
Remember me whenever you see a rainbow
Or woods in autumn colors from afar.

Remember me whenever you see the roses
Or seagulls sailing high in a sky of blue.
Remember me whenever you see waves
Shining in the sun.
And remember, I'll be remembering you!

Remember me whenever you see a teardrop,
Or meadows still wet with the morning dew.
Remember me whenever you feel love
Growing in your heart.
And remember, I'll be remembering you!

...ƒяιєη∂ѕнιρ ƒℓσωєя

It should be you Lyla x

As you will know Lyla (because you're watching down on us always) Gracie is starting school soon. It makes me incredibly sad that she is the first one in the family to be a school girl. It should have been you! You should be here to tell us all what schools like and to teach Gracie. She has changed so much since we lost you, I don't think she's cut out to be the eldest one - she doesn't set much of a good example for the others! Watch over her won't you, keep looking down on her and stand up for her like you would have done if you were here.
As always, we are doing our best to look after Mummy, Daddy and Jude for you.
Love and cuddles as always,
Auntie Kristy x x x

I LOVE YOU!! :)

I know I havent been on here for a while but Youre always in my thoughts, dreams and Im always reminded of you when I look at your brother, he has the same cheeky grin with the same gap in his front teeth.
I am struggling a bit at the moment and other than talking to you I dont know how else to feel close to you. I had a dream about you last night, I always have bad days after ive dreamt about you! It feels so real, It felt like I could see you, smell you and see every hair on your head. It reminds me of what ive lost and how much it hurts. I wish I could have you here for cuddles with me Daddy and Jude.
On a brighter note - I talk to Jude about you all the time and hes getting to the age where Id like to get your toys out for him to play with (not for him to keep obviously!) I will talk him through what we used to do and make sure he knows everything there is to know about his big sister
I LOVE YOU X x x

They say time heals..............

Hey my gorgeous girlybug. Everyone says that time is a healer, but they're wrong.............the pain of losing you is as strong today as it was on the day you left me to go to heaven. There's not a day goes past that I don't think about you, and I try really, really hard to think happy memories of the joy and pleasure you brought into my life. The 26th July 2011 marks an especially sad day for me.............. after tomorrow you will have been in heaven for as long as you were on this planet and I will have been without you for two years and eight months, exactly the same amount of time that I was able to hold you in my arms. I miss you so much and love you just as much as I did on the day you came into this world. You are so, so precios to me and you will always be nanny's number one baby girl. Keep shining your brightest light my Angel. xxxxx

Happy Birthday Sweetheart

I know i'm a few days late Lyla but I was with Mummy, Daddy and Jude on your birthday. I hope you had a lovely day up there in heaven celebrating your 5th birthday. Gracie says you must be in heaven school now that you're 5!
I've been reading back over tributes people have left and its often mentioned that it doesn't seem like you've been gone long and that people can still remember so much about you. Its not like that for me, I feel like you've been gone forever and my memories are fading and it scares me that I have so little of you left. I can't remember the sound of your voice or the feel of your cuddles and I wish I could.
I'm doing my best to give all the love I have for you to your beautiful little brother. I am particularly sad that our wedding is coming up and I will be missing a little bridesmaid. Look down on us won't you?!
All my love and cuddles

Hello my gorgeous girl. Today is your little brothers 1st birthday and he's grown into a beautiful, precious little one, just like you. I know you're watching over him to make sure he's safe just as you would have done if you were still with us. I love and miss you so much baby girl. Keep shining your special light. xxxxxxxxxx

Christmas

This is our 3rd christmas without you and if im honest part of me doesnt want to do it. Im thinking about you alot today remembering how excited you were about christmas, its so hard to have to face this time of year but I have to be happy for your little brother - its his first christmas and I know you will be giving him loads of love and cuddles. I know I say this every time and reading it back it seems its just words but I miss you so much it hurts, if I close my eyes I can remember what it was like to give you cuddles, I just wish with all my heart it was for real. I will be thinking about you all day tomorrow. I love you so much x x x
