An Angel Child
Once in awhile an Angel child, chooses to come to the earth With gifts from above He brings so much love To those who wait for their sweet angels birth Once in awhile an angel child Struggles while he's on the earth Salvation made sure Great trials he'll endure as he teaches us life's infinite worth Sweet angel child heavens light fills your eyes, Unspoken love fills your soul You wait patiently Your dreams set you fee May the dreams in your heart all come true by Holden Ramos' Mama I said, "God, I hurt." And God said, "I know." I said, "God, I cry a lot." And God said, "That is why I gave you tears." I said, "God, I am so depressed." And God said, "That is why I gave you Sunshine." I said, "God, life is so hard." And God said, "That is why I gave you loved ones." I said, "God, it hurts." And God said, "I know." I said, "God, my loved one died." And God said, "So did mine." I said, "God, it is such a loss." And God said, I saw mine nailed to a cross." I said, "God, but your loved one lives." And God said, "So does yours." I said, "God, where are they now?" And God said, "Mine is on My right and yours is in the Light." On the wall at the Oklahoma Bombing Site ![]() ![]() ![]()

So sad. Prayers and peace to the Sparkman family. Glad for no more suffering. So heartbreaking. Don't quite have the right words. Just so sad.

So tragic--another person--a child in this case--lost to this dreaded disease.
I am in tears. I hate this damn disease.
