Donny
My friend just lost her two week old baby girl due to liver/kidney problems... I'm having a tough time figuring out what to say to her right now, I can't imagine the pain she is going through... I would like to send her some uplifting poems/quotes about the time she did spend with her beautiful baby...
Thank you everyone..Today is the funeral, and these quotes have helped. I'm going to go look at your blog now... I can't vote up for your comments because I'm not a level 2? Sorry, and thanks again!!!

I will lend you, for a little time,
A child of mine, He said.
For you to love the while he lives,
And mourn for when he's dead.
It may be six or seven years,
Or twenty-two or three.
But will you, till I call him back,
Take care of him for Me?
He'll bring his charms to gladden you,
And should his stay be brief.
You'll have his lovely memories,
As solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay,
Since all from earth return.
But there are lessons taught down there,
I want this child to learn.
I've looked the wide world over,
In search for teachers true.
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes,
I have selected you.
Now will you give him all your love,
Nor think the labour vain.
Nor hate me when I come
To take him home again?
I fancied that I heard them say,
'Dear Lord, Thy will be done!'
For all the joys Thy child shall bring,
The risk of grief we'll run.
We'll shelter him with tenderness,
We'll love him while we may,
And for the happiness we've known,
Forever grateful stay.
But should the angels call for him,
Much sooner than we've planned.
We'll brave the bitter grief that comes,
And try to understand.

Sweet Child
by Unknown Author
God made a sweet child
a child who never grew old
He made a smile of sunshine
He molded a heart of pure gold.
He made that child as close to an angel
as anyone ever could be
God made a Sweet Child
and He gave that dear child to me
Then God saw His wonderful creation
growing very tired and weak
so He wrapped the child in His loving arms
and said, "You my child I keep"
But now my Sweet Child is an angel
Free from hurt and pain
I'll love you forever, until we meet again
So many times I have missed you
So many times I have cried
If all my love could have saved you
Sweet Child you never would have died.

Do not judge a song by its duration
Nor by the number of its notes
Judge it by the richness of its contents
Sometimes those unfinished are among the most poignantâ¦
Do not judge a song by its duration
Nor by the number of its notes
Judge it by the way it touches and lifts the soul
Sometimes those unfinished are among the most beautifulâ¦
And when something has enriched your life
And when itâs melody lingers on in your heart.
Is it unfinished?
Or is it endless?
A Gift for such a little while
by Unknown Author
A gift for such a little while,
your loss just seems so wrong,
you should not have left before us,
itâs with loved ones you belong.
No farewell words were spoken
by Unknown Author
No farewell words were spoken,
no time to say goodbye, you were
gone before we knew it, and only
God knows why.
When God calls our children
by Unknown Author
When God calls our children
to dwell with Him above,
We mortals sometimes question
the wisdon of His love.
For no heartache compares with,
the death of one small child.
Who does so much to make our world,
seem so wonderful and mild.
Perhaps God tires of calling
the aged to His fold.
So He picks a rosebud
before it can grow old.
God knows how much we need them,
and so He takes but few.
To make the land of heaven
more beautiful to view.
Believing this is difficult
still somehow we must try.
The saddest word mankind knows
will always be Good-bye.
So when a little child departs,
we who are left behind,
Must realize God loves children.

Answer
Aww what great idea for a gift.
A new baby is like the beginning of all things wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities
A baby is God's opinion that the world should go on. Never will a time come when the most marvelous recent invention is as marvelous as a newborn baby
A baby is born with a need to be loved - and never outgrows it.
The worst feature of a new baby is its mother's singing
Life is a flame that is always burning itself out, but it catches fire again every time a child is born.
Give a little to love a child, and you get a great deal back.
No one likes change but babies in diapers.
Every child begins the world again
Your new baby is the tinest thing in your whole life that you will cherish forever.
Babies are such a nice way to start people.
A baby is an angel whose wings decrease as his legs increase
A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for.
People who say they sleep like a baby usually don't have one
Record all the noises he makes so later you can ask him what he meant.
