I am not an eloquent writer. I have a difficult time choosing my words on days when my heart isn't heavy with sorrow.
Madeline Alice Spohr passed away on April 7, 2007. She was only 17 months old. I have followed the journey of her life through her mom Heather's blog and smiled daily at the angelic face that would look out at you each day. In fact, a picture of Madeline's sweet face is what drew me in to begin with and from then on I was hooked.
I can not imagine the heartache of this family nor will I pretend that I understand what they are going through. They fought so hard for Maddie and I know this is not the path they were expecting, not now. Not ever.
Please hold Maddie's family in your prayers and if it is in your ability, donate to the March of Dimes in memory of Maddie.
And most of all, hold your kids a little tighter...a little longer. I know I did.
Bless you Madeline. Fly with the angels.
