| A Poem... If You Have Ever Loss Your Baby! I found this awesome poem called; “The Greatest Gift”!. If you have ever lost a pet… then this poem will talk to you. We all know when we love our pets as much as we do... that someday we will have to be a voice for them. They will need to lean on us, and we will have to be the ones who listen and relieve them from their pain. I Wish You Would Have Lived Longer But Now I Know Your Pain Is Gone I Will Miss You Terribly LeiLani Rest In Peace - My Baby Girl April 2, 2008 - May 19, 2008 The Greatest Gift I always knew this time would come, From the very instant our eyes first met. How I loved you then! How I love you now! I made a promise then, and I keep that promise now... You will not suffer from a pain that will not heal; You will not know the loss of a life remembered, now gone. It is for me alone to make this decision, The price for the bright joy and pure laughter You brought me during the time we shared. I am the only one who can decide when it is time. When my hope dies, and my fears ride high, Just when I need you most, I must let you go. It is for you alone to tell me when you are ready For without your guidance, I will not know When to lay my grief, my guilt, my anger, My sorrow and my selfish heart aside And give you this last gift, this greatest gift. Your eyes will speak to mine, and I will know. The pain of this moment is excruciating. Tears stream down my face in a river of sorrow. And my heart drowns in a pool of grief. For you have spoken and I have listened, And unlike other decisions I have made This one brings no relief...no comfort...no peace. For if there's one thing you've taught me, If there's only one thing I've learned... Unconditional love has a condition after all, I must be willing to let you go, when you speak to me I must be willing to help you go, if you cannot go alone. And I must accept my pain so you can be free of yours. Go easily now, go quickly now, Do not linger here, it is time for you to leave. Go find your strength, go find your youth. Go find the ones who've gone before you. You are free to leave me now, free to let your spirit soar Rest easy now, your pain will soon be gone. I pray I will find comfort in my memories... In the dark and lonely days ahead, I cannot say I will not miss you, I cannot say I will not cry. For only my tears can heal my broken heart. But, I promise you this: as long as I live, You will live, alive in my mind, forever in my heart. So I give you this last gift, all I have left to give, And this will be my greatest gift...sending you away. It is the measure of my unconditional love... For only the greatest love can say, "Good-bye, go find the bridge, we'll meet again, Loving you has been the greatest gift of all." Author unknown...

| Wow that brought tears to my eyes.... That was a beautiful poem.... Here is one I say every night to babies I have lost. If my tears could build a bridge and my memories form a lane I would climb a staircase to heaven and bring you right back down again. |

| It's Called Unconditional Love! Yes, It sure makes you think? There is so much more we need to do for our pets, then just love & care for them. We need to love them so much, that when they need us to speak for them, We will listen. Our pets do talk, they just don't use words.
