Dear Busayo

Exactly six years ago today.......the whole thing seems like yesterday. God has been so faithful, He is indeed out strength, Not sure what we would have done without Him. He is God alone from before time began. What a mighty God we serve!

The stanza below is my current whatsapp profile... it is used almost everytime we attend the St Thomas remembrance day for kids that died at St Thomas. In December 2015, i saw one of the doctors that looked after you and she still remembers you! Who will not? You are such a beautiful baby..... very lovely and you were beautiful till your last day.

My baby, our baby, our long awaited baby! We all miss you, daddy, Fisayo and myself but God has been so faithful. He will not leave us not forsake us.

Each Life is indeed a GIFT
No matter how short, no matter how fragile
Each Life is indeed a GIFT
To be held in out hearts for ever

Your life was so short but we cherish every moment we spent with you. These words from the internet means a lot

"Precious Little One, We had you in our lives such a very short time, but we’ll hold you in our hearts forever. It seemed like only a fleeting moment, but it was long enough to see you, touch you, hold you, love you. It was long enough to know that your life was indeed a gift- no matter how brief, no matter how fragile, Your life was indeed a gift, and we’ll hold you in our hearts forever."

"God saw you getting tired, a cure not meant to be. So he put his arms around you and whispered, “Come with me.” With tearful eyes we watched you and saw you fade away, although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay. A golden heart stopped beating, your tender hands at rest. God took you home to prove to us he only takes the best"

Gone yet not forgotten, although we are apart, your spirit lives within me, forever in my heart.

Ours for a little while, with Jesus forever

Sleep on beloved till we meet to part no more.
