Poem

"I thought of you with love today, but that is nothing new,
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too.
I think of you in silence, I often speak your name,
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is my keepsake, with which I’ll never part.
God has you in His keeping, I have you in my heart."

Caelyn & Bella

Caelyn Nicolette, born still on June 27, 2007. We dedicate this blog to you and your little sister Bella who went to heaven September 23, 2008. We miss you both and love you very much.

Caelyn was born 5lb 9oz and 17.25 inched long. We later found out that she has a genetic syndrome that her daddy and I carry known as SLOS, short for Smith Lemli Opitz Syndrome. My babies were not able to convert 7DHC to cholesterol because they lack the enzyme that is does that job. To learn more about SLOS and how you can help go to www.smithlemiopitz.org. Little Bella Nicolette was only 12 weeks gestation when her heart stopped beating. We were so devasted to hear she also had SLOS, we love her and miss her terribly.
