The thought of Emma terrified me, when I found out I was pregnant, I didn't know whether to be happy
or sad. I soon realised my selfish ways would have to stop and that I was going to be a mommy. I
soon became happy.

I did everything I could to ensure that she was perfect, I didn't smoke, I didn't drink, I avoided
everything and anything that could possibly harm her in any way.

The first time she kicked, it was like tiny butterflies. Then she became pro, and I'm sure could
have been a tae-bo expert. She either loved or hated (I'm gonna say the latter) my singing in the
shower.

We used to play "guess that body part" while lying on the bed as she was very active and always
doing something.

On the day I found out that she was gone, the world fell out from under me. Imagine the despair of
knowing she was gone and not being able to do anything about it. She was due on the 16th April 2008.
She had only two days until we met.

I never got to hold her. Or tell her I loved her. Or see the colour of her eyes or hear her laugh or
cry. These are my biggest regrets.

My life was meant to change. It was meant to be different. Now my life has changed and it is
different, but not how I planned.

I miss her everyday. I still talk to the stars in the vain attempt that she can hear nme where-ever
she is. I love her and miss her and wish daily that she was here with me today.

Emma, you have been the best thing to happen to me. Also the worst. But because of you, now I am a
stonger person (although I cry for you, that isn't weakness) and I thank you for that.

Mommy and daddy love you. And we'll see you and hold you and hugs and squeeze you one day, just not
right now, the time isn't right.

Love and miss you Em xx

Emma's Poem:
Those who are near me, do not know that Emma is nearer to me than they are. Those who speak to me,
do not know that my heart is full with Emma's unspoken words. Those who crowd in my path, do not
know that I am walking alone with Emma. They who love me, do not know that their love brings her to
my heart.

"Angel"
Tear drops, slow and steady,
The pain so real and true,
God took another angel,
And that angel, dear, was you.

Angel wings, upon the clouds,
Your body softly sleeps,
Hush now little angel,
No more tears you have to weep.

Little prayers,are sent to you,
The short life you led;
Your family will never forget you,
So rest your little head.

I know God will look after you,
Now you are truly alive,
Your spirit soars beyond the moon,
Your legacy will survive.

You’re beautiful, you’re endless,
Now stretch your wings and fly,
Your loved by so many,
It will never be goodbye.

Close your pretty eyes,
No more tears,just go and rest,
Let your soul lie peacefully,
we know you did your best.
