Bertie, our little star was born at 1.48am on Saturday 16 June 2007 in Warrington Hospital at just 22 weeks gestation. He lived for a few minutes before he died. He was so brave trying to live but was just too young. He is our precious little angel, taken straight to heaven as God wanted him back. He was a very much wanted IVF baby and we are devastated that we lost him. My husband and I miss him very much, but know that one day we will see him again. We know the Angels are looking after him, but wish so much that he was with us still. We think about him every day and love him very much.

Our little Bertie
A new star in Heaven
A true little Angel
Our precious little boy

In a fairy castle
Just beyond my eyes
My baby plays with angel toys
that money cannot buy
Who am I to wish him back
Into this world of strife?
No! Play on my baby
You have eternal life

At night when all is silent
Yet sleep forsakes my eyes
I hear his tiny footsteps
Come running to my side
His tiny hands caress me
SO tenderly and sweet,
I breathe a sigh and say a prayer
Embrace him in my sleep

Now I have a treasure
That I hold above all other
I have known true glory
For I am still his Mother

Loved so much
Mummy and Daddy

But Jesus called the children to him and said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it."

A Birthday In Heaven - Author Unknown

I heard you crying yesterday,
And felt your heart-sent love.
So I’m sending you this message
Now, from Heaven up above.

You’re wondering if I’ll celebrate
My birthday (way up here).
I know you’re missing me today
I feel your essence near.

God planned a special day for me,
He told me with a wink.
He’d ordered me a special cake
(It’s Angel food, I think).

Balloons will fill the streets for me,
They float up through the clouds.
And we have lots of friends up here
That make us laugh out loud.

There is a birthday carousel,
Jewelled horses ride the wind,
With music playing, oh so sweet…
The magic never ends.

I’ve made so many friends, you see
We laugh and play and sing.
We ride our bikes and play the fool
And sleep in Angel’s wings.

But we don’t blow out our candles here
Instead, they light the skies.

With love from your little Angel xxx

Special Angel Day - by Sam & Gordon Winson

We do not need a special day
To bring you to our minds.
The days we do not think of you
Are very hard to find.

Each morning when we awake
We know that you are gone.
And no one knows the heartache
As we try to carry on.

Our hearts still ache with sadness
And secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you
No one will ever know.

Our thoughts are always with you,
Your place no one can fill.
In life we loved you dearly;
In death we love you still.

There will always be a heartache,
And often a silent tear.
But always a precious memory
Of the days when you were here.

If tears would make a staircase,
And heartaches make a lane,
We'd walk the path to heaven
And bring you home again.

We hold you close within our hearts;
And there you will remain,
To walk with us throughout our lives
Until we meet again.

Our family chain is broken now,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.

From Grandma

Dear Bertie
the site will not let me light a candle for you so doing a tribute instead. Going to see your grave today. And your new flowers. It's cold today Bertie. Pray for us all especially your mummy and daddy this weekend. Lots of love from Grandma. xxx

Always remembered

Perhaps they are not
stars in the sky,
but rather openings
where our loved ones
shine down
to let us know they
are happy.

Keep shining down on your mummy and daddy Bertie, they love you very much and always will.

Take care little man xxx
