Silently born on 3 December 2008, weighing just 6oz and small enough to fit in daddy's hand. Ben
was a much wanted and much loved son of Denise and Gary and a precious baby brother of Gemma and
Garry. You were a miracle Ben and we wanted you so much darling but you couldn't stay. To hold
you in our arms for a brief time was a precious gift and we'll always remember and treasure those
moments. Sleeping with the Angels above because that's what you are, night night little one, sweet
dreams. Mammy and daddy love you dearly and always will. Hugs and kisses little Ben from your
big sister Gemma and your big brother Garry. xxxx
Our Ben
Hey darling, just want you to know that we're thinking of you. It's been 8 weeks and feels a lifetime. Still no answers but it won't be long hunni before we get that appointment. Mammy's dreading that day but needing it at the same time.
2 months has gone by and mammy's still waiting for a baby brother or sister for you to look over and keep safe. It doesn't matter how often or how many people say 'it'll happen, just be patient', her need is so great that these words don't mean anything. She knows people mean well but until she has a healthy screaming baby in her arms, she won't rest. We know you're looking down on us babe and know that when the time comes you'll be looking after your brother/sister.
Just taking one day at a time at the moment hunni, sometimes even one hour at a time. We'll get there though......sometime
Loving, missing and thinking of you everyday and always, your mammy and daddy

xxxxx DADDY xxxxx
Daddy you will never show me
How to catch or throw a ball
Or tie my laces really tight
Or how to fish (with bait and all)
You’ll never teach me ABCs
Or read to me, and tuck me in
You’ll never kiss and make me laugh
With tickles from your spiky chin
Youll never see me graduate
For my cap and gown ill never see
And you’ll never hold my babies
Like you never got to cuddle me
You would have been the best’s daddy
But I had gone before you knew
So instead of watching me my daddy
Ill be watching over you . love from your son Ben xx
All our love, mummy and daddy xxxx
I didn't have to look into your eyes
to fall in love with you,
I didn't have to hear you cry
to know you loved me too,
I didn't need to hold your hand
to cherish you always,
Within my womb we shared our hearts.
You touched my soul,
You sweetened my spirit,
You gave me memories i will always hold so very dear.
Yes my heart aches since you departed so soon,
But a mothers love does not end with death,
For you are my child,
My love is forever yours.

These are my tiny footprints, so perfect and so small.
These tiny footprints, never touched the ground at all.
Not one tiny footprint, for now I have my wings.
These tiny footprints were meant for other things.
You will hear my tiny footprints, in the patter of the rain.
Gentle drops like angel tears, of joy and not from pain.
You will see my tiny footprints, in each butterfly's lazy dance.
I'll let you know I'm with you, if you give me just a chance.
You will see my tiny footprints, in the rustle of the leaves.
I will whisper names into the wind, and call each one that grieves.
Most of all, these tiny footprints, are found in Mummy & Daddy's heart
Because even though I'm gone now, we'll never truly part
In memory of Benjamin Stephen, always loved, always missed
With every beat of our heart xxxx
Happy New Year baby Ben.
give mummy and daddy and your family the strength to carry on, sleep well angel and make sure Thomas and Megan look after you

4 weeks old
Hello my darling Ben, it's been 4 weeks since we met you and you flew away. Not a day goes by that we don't think of you. Sometimes when mummy feels sad she remembers the day she met you and whilst that day was sad, it was also happy because she held you finally and that makes her happy, for a little while. Know that we love you our baby boy and always will, even when we don't leave you a message on here. As time passes our messages will get fewer but our love will remain forever.
Love you son, mummy xxxx
Our little angel it's been 4 weeks since you came into our lives and changed everything, you've made a lot of friends since coming into the world and i'm sure you'll make many more.
Our love for you grows stronger each day and you'll never leave our heart's. XXXX
Christmas gone, 2009 approaching
Hello my darling Ben, Christmas has now gone and we're heading towards a new year. As much as I want to leave this year behind because I lost you during it, I also want to stay because you were here and 2009 will only have you in spirit. A lot of good things happened this year though, like me and daddy moving in together, then getting married and finding out we were expecting you. But I have to move forward Ben into 2009. We'll never leave you behind but we have to get on with life. And that means trying for another baby when we're allowed. It won't ever mean that we love you any less but we've always wanted a baby and we can't give up because you couldn't stay. It would be really nice if, when we do find out we're having a baby, you could look over him/her and keep them safe in mummy's tummy so that they can have a life with us and grow up knowing they have a big brother looking over them.
We all love you little Ben and always will. No one can ever stop that.
Missing you always, your mummy xxxx
An Angel in the Book Of Life
Wrote down our baby's birth
And whispered as she closed the book
'Too beautiful for Earth'
Love you Ben more and more each day, mummy and daddy xxxx
MERRY CHRISTMAS XX
MERRY CHRISTMAS BABY Benjamin
