My dearest family,
How can I ever thank all of you.  So I would like to share a story about a beautiful little boy who came into our life.  Robert was born with a hypoplastic left heart he underwent heart surgery when he was 3 days old, he fought for 9 1/2 weeks had 5 surgeries and gave joy to everyone.  It is amazing the lives he touched and still does. He had big browm eyes and a ton of hair that stood straight on end.  He looked so much like his daddy!  On Thanksgiving day November 28th Bob and I pulled Robert's life support, we knew that he was going to die and wanted him to die with dignity instead of going into cardiac arrest.  He was taken off life support and placed in our arms, Robert looked up at Bob and I as if to say thank you and he very peacefully fell off to sleep.   I sang Silent Night to him and we told him to go to Jesus that we would be ok. That night at 10:45 p.m. Robert went home to be with Jesus.  I have to say that I have never felt such peace in my whole life he finally felt no pain.  Bob and I decided that Robert's life should be celebrated so his funeral was truly a celebration of this beautiful babies life.
Robert gave me so much, he is always with me and God has truly blessed Bob and I with two beautiful little girls Elizabeth and Maria. 
This year does seem to be a harder year for us, we imagine what it would be like to have him here with the girls.  I think this year is harder because Maria seems to be asking more questions about her big brother, and both girls keep saying how they wish he was here.  We also take Maria to the same Hospital as he died in and that to is difficult at this time of the year. Bob and I celebrate in the fact that we know that someday we will see our son again. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all your love and support.
God Bless
Love and Hugs,
Sweet and Bob

This wonderful baby boy was so blessed to have you and Bob as his parents Mary. You are one of the strongest women I know my friend. You are a treasure and we are so lucky to have you. God gives us these gifts and he takes them away for his own reasons-reasons we dont always know or understand. Your faith is so strong-I admire you so much! I can't even begin to imagine the pain of losing a child. I can however relate to the joy of having one! You are precious! I love you-Jazzy
